Jim currently is a Special Education administrator in a suburban

Team (SBIT) Project for the Syracuse (NY) City School District.
SBIT is a very successful problem-solving model in which teachers

and behavior management strategies for struggling students .
Jim also is past Co-Chair of the Central New York School Violence
Prevention Network, an affiliation of school- and community-based
professionals who meet monthly to share strategies for ensuring
that schools remain safe places to learn. In November 2001, Jim
was selected for the "Leadership in School Psychology"
award by the New York Association of School Psychologists.
Jim has presented to teachers, school administrators, and parents
in the Central New York area, throughout New York State, and in
other parts of the nation on effective academic and behavioral
interventions, strategies for teaching 'defiant' students, curriculum-based
measurement, and school-wide violence prevention planning.
