Hawaii Behavior Admin Setup

The Behavior Admin tool is used to setup behavior events/incidents, resolutions, and responses. Behavior Admin fields that are specific to the state of Hawaii are described below. For all other inquiries, please visit the Behavior Admin article.

Individual schools should NOT setup their own Event or Resolution Types. These items should only be setup at the state level.

Before setting up Event Types, Resolution Types, or Preferences, be SURE the campus toolbar does NOT have a school or calendar selected; this makes the behavior event type available for all schools within the district.

Suspension Days Threshold

The Suspension Days Threshold field is a campus-calculated value based on the total number of instructional days in the calendar and divides it by two. The result of this calculation determines the instructional day on which the instructional calendar is midpoint in the year. For example, for a school year that has 180 instructional days, the halfway point is 90 days. The value in this field allows the Behavior module to track Total Suspension Days for students in the instructional calendar year.
