My son had a difficult year this past year with behaviors. I would like to get something in place for him next year to help him. I have heard of a behavior plan, and I am thinking he may need one. Can someone explain what it is and how I can get one?

You can request the site do a FAA. Be sure whether the site is using FAA and FBA as synonyms or how they are differentiating them. For some sites, if they do an FAA it will NOT lead to a possible BIP. Also, keep in mind that the site will have 15 calendar days to provide an assessment plan or a PWN- Prior Written Notice of their denial. Assuming you get and sign an evaluation plan, the site will then have 60 calendar days (not counting breaks greater than 5 school days) to complete the evaluation and hold an IEP meeting.
Because this can be a lengthy process (2.5 months), you may want to simultaneously do one of the less intensive plans in the interim OR adjust whatever plan is currently in the IEP.
So, get an agreement on the eval that is appropriate and then, request an interim lower level behavior plan/adjustment.
