The Colonial Middle School Child Study Team is an intervention and referral team comprised of administrative, counseling, teaching and support personnel that has been instituted in order to provide students and families with assistance in dealing with issues related to attendance problems, academic impediments, behavioral difficulty, social issues and school health concerns. 

The Child Study Team will provide out-reach, support and aftercare services within the school setting and will serve as the liaison to treatment providers within the community. 

 How it works:  teachers, administrative staff, counselors or support personnel can make a referral to the Child Study Team if they notice a change in the student’s behavior and have tried other resources to aid the student. 

In addition students can refer themselves to the Child Study Team through their guidance counselor.  Parents and students can also make referrals to the Child Study Team at any time by speaking to their school counselor.
