Over 20+ years of research by the Secret Service supports that BTAM is very effective in identifying and mitigating behaviors of concern by helping to engage additional interventions and supports. The school Behavioral Threat Assessment & Management (BTAM) training is based upon research and best practices developed by the U.S. Secret Service.\n \n BASIC TRAINING\n The basic training teaches threat assessment teams how to effectively conduct a threat assessment according to best practices outlined by the United States Secret Service National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC). The goal of BTAM is to identify\, engage\, and work collaboratively with students and families to mitigate life situational factors contributing to thoughts of violence and aggression.\n \n The one-day basic training workshop covers the following topics:\n • Understanding school violence and implications for prevention\n • What is BTAM\, and what it’s not.\n • 8 steps in developing and operating an effective school threat assessment program\n • Critical steps to conducting a thorough threat assessment process\n • Tabletop Exercise - screening\, inquiry/investigation/assessing and analyzing\n • Developing and implementing case management plans\n • Tabletop Exercise - identifying resources and creating the management plan\n • Summary / Q & A\n \n COURSE OBJECTIVES:\n At the end of the course\, participants will:\n • Understand major facts about school violence and how prevention is possible.\n • Be familiar with the principles of behavioral threat assessment and why schools should use it.\n • Know how to build a threat assessment program using the 8 Steps\n • Gain practice using threat assessment procedures through multiple tabletop exercises\n • Understand how to work a threat assessment case\n • How to screen cases to see if a threat assessment is warranted\n • How to gather information from multiple sources\n • How to analyze the information using 11-Key Questions\n • How to make an assessment\n • How to develop a case management plan to reduce risk\n \n We highly recommend that school/district BTAM teams attend the training together. Critical team members include administrators (principals/assistant principals/deans)\, school psychologists\, counselors\, social workers\, school resource officers\, and law enforcement. Other important professionals can also include behavioral interventionists\, special education professionals/case managers\, nurses\, and community mental health professionals providing services in the schools and/or those who may help work threat assessment cases.\n \n Date: August 4\, 2026\n Time: 8:00 am - 3:30 pm\n Location: Bay-Arenac ISD - ESC\, 4228 Two Mile Road\, Bay City\, MI 48706\n Cost: \n• \; \;$0 for In-Consortium Districts\n• \; $50 for Out-of-Consortium Districts \n \n Event Questions: Stacey Meininger: \; meiningers@baisd.net\nBecky Smith: \; smithr@baisd.net CATEGORIES:PD SESSION LOCATION:Bay-Arenac ISD Educational Service Center\, 4228 Two Mile Road\, Bay City\, MI 48706 SEQUENCE:0 UID:e99b23094ff00e4d6647802bdc276f2b URL:http://202627baisdprofessionaldevelopme.sched.com/event/e99b23094ff00e4d6647802bdc276f2b END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260822T015935Z DTSTART:20260805T130000Z DTEND:20260805T180000Z SUMMARY:BAISD Principal Network - Kick Off Session DESCRIPTION:Open to principals and assistant principals across general education\, special education\, and whole child systems leadership.\n The BAISD Principals Network is a collaborative leadership series designed to support principals in navigating the complex realities of school leadership.\n \n Facilitated through a partnership between Instructional Services\, Special Education\, and Whole Child Systems\, this network creates space for leaders to connect\, problem-solve\, and learn together through the lens of supporting all learners.\n \n Sessions will include timely updates\, leadership learning\, roundtable discussions\, and collaborative problem-solving focused on instructional leadership\, student support systems\, behavior and SEL needs\, special education\, and school improvement.\n \n Designed with the realities of the principalship in mind\, this network prioritizes practical support\, meaningful collaboration\, and relevant conversations principals can immediately apply within their buildings.\n \n Kick-off Meeting: \n August 5\, 2026 ~ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm\n SCECHs are available and lunch will be provided.\n \n Event Questions: Jennifer Socha: sochaj@baisd.net CATEGORIES:NETWORK LOCATION:Bay-Arenac ISD Educational Service Center\, 4228 Two Mile Road\, Bay City\, MI 48706 SEQUENCE:0 UID:07dc94bd07ce80a8e95bef34385a1594 URL:http://202627baisdprofessionaldevelopme.sched.com/event/07dc94bd07ce80a8e95bef34385a1594 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260822T015935Z DTSTART:20260819T163000Z DTEND:20260819T183000Z SUMMARY:Skyward Attendance Letter Drop-In Session DESCRIPTION:Audience: \;Staff responsible for scheduling attendance letters.
