An FBA is a school approach to learning why students have certain behaviors and what could be causing them. The staff need to first define the behavior. Once they have defined it they need to gather and analyze information to better understand the behavior and what could be the cause of it. Then once they have an understanding of why the behavior is happening they need to make a plan.  Its generally used for special education classification and sometimes its required by law for a student who has been removed from school for disruptive behaviors.
