Henry Roth spent 36 years as Principal of Therapeutic Day Schools in Durham, N. C. and in Chicago. The schools all had highly diverse student populations from all socioeconomic levels and backgrounds who had been transferred from their local public, private, or parochial schools due to emotional and behavioral problems. Henry had the opportunity to spend time conversing with students who were sent to “time-out” for various misbehaviors at school (recounted in his 2006 book, TALES FROM TIME-OUT). In TECHNIQUES FOR TIME-OUT, Henry describes the various behavior management strategies that he found helpful in dealing with students in time-out. He classified a spectum of behavior management strategies into three “models” that provide a framework to help staff defuse disruptive behavior, minimize the risk of crisis encounters, and avoid the need for more restrictive measures.
