Abstract "Improving School Climate provides evidence-based and practical strategies for cultivating a healthy school environment, while also avoiding behavior problems. The book is packed with strategies centered on key components and conditions for a positive school climate, such as positive teacher-student relationships, positive student-student relationships (including absence of bullying), supportive home-school relationships, student engagement, effective classroom management and school discipline, school safety, and student self-discipline. This text is an important inclusion for educators and school psychologists who prefer a structured, evidence-based and practical approach for improving school climate, while also promoting students' academic achievement, preventing behavior problems, and fostering students' social and emotional competencies. Useful forms, checklists, or surveys are presented in each chapter, including in a separate chapter on assessing school climate"-- Provided by publisher.
