Critical Features of CICO • Intervention is continuously available • Rapid access to intervention (72 hr) • Very low effort by teachers • Positive System of Support • Students agree to participate • Implemented by all staff/faculty in a school • Flexible intervention based on assessment • Functional Assessment • Adequate resources allocated (admin, team) • weekly meeting, plus 10 hours a week • Continuous monitoring for decision-making
Why does the CICO work? • Improved structure • Prompts throughout the day for correct behavior • System for linking student with at least one adult • Increase in contingent feedback • Feedback occurs more often and is tied to student behavior • Inappropriate behavior is less likely to be rewarded • Elevated reward for appropriate behavior • Adult and peer attention • Linking school and home support • Organized to morph into a self-management system
Research Support • CICO is an Evidence-Based Practice • At least 5 peer reviewed studies • At least 3 different researchers/settings • At least 20 different participants • Pre schools • Sandy Chafouleas, et al 2007 • Elementary Schools • Anne Todd et al in press • Sarah Fairbanks et al, 2007 • Amy Kauffman-Campbell, dissertation • Doug Cheney et al, 2006; 2007 • Leanne Hawken et al. 2007 • Filter et al., 2007 • Middle Schools • Leanne Hawken et al 2003 • Rob March et al 2002 • High Schools • Jessica Swain-Bradway, in progress
What is different about CICO? • Uses Systems Logic • Team approach • Social marketing • Administration makes priority • Easy for teachers to implement- teach staff the process to access help • Uses Data • Tracks specific students- continuous feedback- • Feedback and celebrations with all staff
How is CICO Different Than Other “Behavior Card” Interventions • A Targeted Intervention Implemented Within a School-Wide System of Behavior Support • Behavior Cards typically classroom interventions • Implemented in all settings, throughout the school day • All teachers and staff are trained • Students identified proactively & receive support quickly • Team uses data for decision making to determine progress
CICO Features: • Students identified and receive support within a week • Check-in and check-out daily with an adult at school • Regular feedback and reinforcement from teachers • Family component • Daily performance data used to evaluate progress
CICO Process (cont.) • Weekly or Bi-weekly Principal Recognition • CICO coupon with graph attached • Data shared with all staff at least quarterly • 9-Week graph sent to parents

Cost Benefit • If administrators spend 3 hours to process each suspension, then administrators have recovered 18 days of time. • If students miss 6 hours for each suspension, students have recovered 36 days of instruction!!!!
Is My School Ready to Implement a CICO System? • School-wide system of behavior support in place (SET Score 80% or higher) • Staff buy-in for implementation of the CICO • Administrative support • Time & money allocated • No major changes in school climate • e.g. teacher strikes, administrative turnover, major changes in funding • CICO implementation a top priority
How Do You Build Student and Staff “buy-in” for CICO? • Give CICO program a high profile in your school • Promote CICO as positive support not punishment • Collaboratively involve referring teachers in CICO process • Provide regular feedback to staff, students, and families
1. Coordinator Identified • Considerations: Who? Teacher assistant, behavior specialist, SRO One or Two people? How will time be allocated?
Personnel: CICO Coordinator • Take care of CICO requests for assistance • Lead morning check-in/ afternoon check-out • Enter CICO data on spreadsheet – daily • Organize and maintain records • Create graphs for CICO meetings • Gather supplemental information for CICO meetings • Prioritize CICO students for team meetings
Characteristics of an effective CICO coordinator • Flexibility within job responsibility (e.g., educational assistant, counselor, behavior health aide) • Positive and enthusiastic • Someone the students enjoy and trust • Organized and dependable • Works at school every day
Personnel: CICO Team • Attend weekly or bi-weekly meetings • Contribute to decision making for CICO students • Help conduct “Orientation to CICO” meetings • Gather supplemental information • Contribute to student/staff development workshops • Contribute to feedback sessions • Complete any assigned tasks from CICO meeting
Resources: Time and Money • 8-10 hours per week for CICO coordinator • CICO forms on NCR paper • School supplies for CICO participants • Reinforcements for CICO participants
2. CICO Routine • Considerations: Do students check in and out at different places? Or same place? Do students need to come early and leave last class early? Develop Name, manual with teacher expectations
What’s in a Name? • Behavior Education Program • Daily Progress Report • Kennedy Card Program • Kennedy Card • Hello, Update, & Goodbye (HUG program) • Hug Card • Student Leadership Academy- • Leadership Skills Training *Caution with Using “Behavior Card” or “Behavior Plan” Instructional Support Card
3. Point Card and System • Considerations: Refer to SWIS CICO readiness – Assessment Tools * Up to 10 check in periods * Up to 5 expectations * A three point rating scale Same card for all students, use SW expectations, age appropriate, positively stated, teach friendly
Designing Daily Progress Reports • Determine behavioral expectations • School-wide expectations • Academic vs. behavioral expectations • Expectations stated positively • Range of scores vs. dichotomous scoring • Rating scales should be age appropriate • Teacher friendly • circling versus writing & place for teacher initials • consistent expectations versus individual expectations • Data easy to summarize and determine if goal is met

4. Point Trading System Metric – 3 point rating scale and number of check in periods will determine total number of points students may earn each day. Points may be accumulated and used at the “Trading Post” When will trading occur? Variety of rewards with social focus, what happens if a student misses “Trading post day?”
CICO Trading Post- Focus on Building Relationships- “School Connectedness”
5. Student Identification Considerations: How will students be identified? What are the decision rules? Students should be able to access support in multiple ways.
