The Vermont Department of Education's project, Building Effective Support for Teaching (BEST) students with behavioral strategies, has a three-pronged approach:

1. to increase all Vermont schools' capacity to serve students with behavior disorders,
2. to create regional collaboratives to provide resources to schools, and
3. to pilot and implement early intervention strategies to prevent all students from entering kindergarten with the seeds of behavior or emotional challenges.
