Mercer County Education Association

Dealing with difficult students represents ongoing challenges for the school staff. This workshop provides participants with specifics in dealing with students who are continually disruptive, persistently defiant, demanding attention, or unmotivated. These are the students who defy authority and cause stress, frustration, and anger. Participants can apply what they learn at this workshop in their jobs.
