TL;DR

Psychoeducational day schools provide clinical and special education services to children with severe behavior disorders and outcome studies indicate that treated children tend to improve in behavioral, academic, and family functioning but warrant continued intervention.

Abstract

Psychoeducational day schools provide clinical and special education services to children with severe behavior disorders. Outcome studies indicate that treated children tend to improve in behavioral, academic, and family functioning but warrant continued intervention. Family therapy, development of academic skills, and coordination of aftercare services appear critical to long-term program success.
