What is a Behavioral Intervention Plan (BIP) primarily concerned with?

Providing sports activities
Implementing school-wide discipline rules
Addressing problem behavior with positive interventions
Increasing academic rigor

The correct answer is: Addressing problem behavior with positive interventions

A Behavioral Intervention Plan (BIP) is primarily concerned with addressing problem behavior through positive interventions. It is developed for students who demonstrate challenging behaviors that may impede their learning or the learning of others. The BIP outlines specific strategies, interventions, and supports tailored to the individual needs of the student, aiming to improve their behavior and enhance their educational experience. By focusing on positive interventions, a BIP helps teach alternative behaviors, promotes self-regulation, and encourages the development of coping skills that lead to better behavioral outcomes in the school environment. The other options do not accurately reflect the main focus of a BIP. While sports activities and school-wide discipline rules may contribute to a positive school culture, they do not specifically target individual behavior modification. Additionally, increasing academic rigor remains important for educational growth but is not the primary goal of a BIP, which is dedicated to modifying behaviors rather than academic content.
