The purpose of the clinical and guidance services component of the Central Elementary and Secondary Education Act Title I Remedial Services for Eligible Nonpublic School Pupils Program was to enhance the behavior of children in relation to specific instructional skills areas. The component included students who were diagnosed as needing various kinds of remedial assistance in two areas: (1) achievement, and (2) behavior hampering school achievement. The achievement or skill development areas included reading, math and English as a second language. Approximately 6,962 students from 173 schools participated in the program. The pupils, their parents, teachers, Title I remedial teachers and personnel from the Clinical Guidance Service were involved in the improvement effort. Students were included in the evaluation if they had designated pre and post scores in at least one skill area, and on the Behavior Rating Scale (BRS). The first objective, dealing with the improvement in achievement attributable to improvement in behavior, was met for reading and math, and somewhat less for English as a second language. The second objective, improvement in behavior was both statistically and practically significant. The third objective dealing with the actual performance of the program was succesfully met.
