How to Safely Manage a Student in Crisis
How to Safely Manage a Student in Crisis
A trauma-sensitive, proactive plan for safely managing disruptive behavior includes knowing when to call for support and how to help a student de-escalate.
“I’m not a therapist—what can I do?”
“He was online once, once, in a year and half—where was he the rest of the time? I have no idea. Now we’re back, and he’s supposed to just pick back up—are you kidding me?”
“We get no training, no support; how are we supposed to handle a kid flipping a desk?”
“It’s too much—I’m crying all the time, and I’m terrified.”
That’s real talk, from real teachers, with real life coming at them fast. There’s not a single one of us who hasn’t been there. With school and personal life in turmoil over the past two years, teachers have found they’re increasingly responsible for a tremendous amount of student needs outside of the traditional job description, while managing their own wellness and compassion fatigue.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
