August doesn’t ease in. It starts the clock. To everyone else, the first day back is a fresh start. The data tells a different story. The first 90 days are the most dangerous stretch of the school year—roughly 285,000 incidents before the end of November. And the behavior patterns that get set in those months don’t stay there: *research shows a student’s referrals in September, October, and November are significant predictors of their behavior for the entire year.* If you’re not ready in August, you’re not behind by a little. You’re behind for the rest of the year. [SEE THE TWO SESSIONS](https://info.navigate360.com/first-90-days-safety-insights#sessions) HALL PASS ### Who’s in the hall right now? Behavioral Case Manager ### Catch it at concern. Not at crisis. The window, by the numbers ## If you're not ready in August, you're not behind by a little—you're behind for the rest of the year. 285K safety incidents in the first 90 days      100% of school attackers exhibited concerning behaviors first (U.S. Secret Service) Sept–Nov early referrals are significant predictors of a student's behavior for the entire year First-90-day totals based on US public schools recording more than 800K safety incidents a year. Attacker behavior data from the U.S. Secret Service National Threat Assessment Center’s analysis of targeted school violence. Referral prediction from a study of 400K+ students across 593 US middle schools (School Psychology Review). The series at a glance ## Two webinars. One school year. The clock is running. The minutes between classes. The weeks between first flag and resolution. Both countdowns begin with the first bell. Hall Pass ### Who's in the hall right now? Curbing vaping, fights, and bullying in the unstructured minutes. Vaping in the restroom, fights between classes, bullying where no adult is watching—the most common incidents don’t happen in class. They happen in the unstructured minutes of movement, in the few square feet no one’s covering. In the first 90-day window, those minutes add up fast. One district is proving those numbers can move. Charlotte County Public Schools cut vaping referrals by 27%, tobacco referrals by 17%, infractions by 16%, and suspensions by 9% within two years of launching their prevention-based intervention program across 16,875 students and 25 schools. In this session, Rebecca Marazon, NCSP, Coordinator of Psychological and Mental Health Services at Charlotte County Public Schools, will share how they did it. Navigate360's Adam Efird will show how a digital hall pass system fits into that plan—giving staff real-time visibility into student movement and the data to act on what they're seeing. The everyday clock—the unstructured minutes between classes What You'll Take Away - ✓ Understand why the hallway is the highest-risk location on your campus—where vaping, fights, and bullying are most likely to occur - ✓ Learn how Charlotte County cut vaping referrals by 27% with structured behavior intervention - ✓ See how schools are pairing digital hall pass data with existing behavioral workflows to spot patterns and identify students who need intervention earlier - ✓ Give staff the visibility to spot what matters—recurring meet-ups, frequent flyers, and students who need intervention before an incident occurs Your Presenters ![Nav360-K12-PWBN-030724-Rebecca Marazon125x125](https://info.navigate360.com/hubfs/Headshots/External/Nav360-K12-PWBN-030724-Rebecca%20Marazon125x125.png) Rebecca Marazon, NCSP Coordinator of Psychological and Mental Health Services, Charlotte County Public Schools ![Adam Efird-125x125](https://info.navigate360.com/hubfs/Headshots/Naviate360%20Employees/Adam%20Efird-125x125.png) Adam Efird Former Teacher and Director of Professional Development, Navigate360 *The minutes between class are unstructured.

Behavioral threat assessment that holds up. The first 90 days bring the perfect storm for behaviors: new students, new problems carried in—family stress, break-ups, friend groups re-forming, pressure as the social order resets. The warning signs show up early: a student being bullied, a spike in referrals, a noticeable behavioral shift that nobody has acted on. But the signs aren't the problem. Missing them is—and so is over-reacting or under-reacting when you do see them.  In this session, Dr. Dewey Cornell, Professor of Education at the University of Virginia and author of the widely-used CSTAG threat assessment model, will walk through what behavioral threat assessment looks like in practice—how to evaluate a concern, when to escalate, and how to distinguish between a transient threat and a serious one. Navigate360's Ryan Sladek will then show how to operationalize that framework—documenting steps, coordinating your team, and building a defensible record that holds up if a case is ever questioned. The prevention clock—from first flag to case management What You'll Take Away - ✓ Know when to conduct a formal threat assessment—and what process to follow - ✓ Distinguish between threat types and respond at the right level of intervention - ✓ Turn assessment into action: document, coordinate, and track in one place - ✓ Build a defensible case record that stands up if it's ever questioned Your Presenters ![Nav360-K12-PWBN-091620-Presenter-Dewey Cornell-125x125](https://info.navigate360.com/hubfs/Headshots/External/Nav360-K12-PWBN-091620-Presenter-Dewey%20Cornell-125x125.png) Dr. Dewey Cornell Professor of Education, University of Virginia—Author of the CSTAG Model ![Ryan Sladek](https://info.navigate360.com/hubfs/Headshots/Naviate360%20Employees/Ryan%20Sladek-125x125.png) Ryan Sladek Former School Administrator and Regional VP of Sales, Navigate360 *A concern you can’t document is a concern you can’t defend.* [WATCH ON-DEMAND](https://info.navigate360.com/catch-it-at-concern-not-at-crisis?hsLang=en) [![Navigate360](https://info.navigate360.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Logos/White/Navigate360Logo_horizontal_XL.png?width=300&height=68&name=Navigate360Logo_horizontal_XL.png "Navigate360")](https://navigate360.com/) ©2026 Navigate360.
