The Educationalization of Student Emotional and Behavioral Health

Mehr zum Buch

The book critiques the shifting of emotional health responsibilities onto schools amid recent education reforms, which demand that schools implement cognitive behavioral strategies to support students. It argues that these reforms unfairly blame families and the education system for societal issues, rather than addressing the root causes. Drawing from the author's extensive experience as a Massachusetts educator and principal, it presents an alternative viewpoint that challenges victim-blaming narratives and highlights a significant gap in responsibility for student well-being.
