Title of Paper

Presenting Problem

Here is where you describe your student. Identify the presenting problem and explain how the student’s background characteristics, current school performance, and family and social involvement contribute to the presenting problem. Write it in narrative form, APA compliant, and in true third person. Submitting a professionally written, APA-compliant document is critical to your development in this course. Keep to two or three paragraphs of at least five sentences. This area sets the foundation for the intervention, so be as thorough about your student as possible.
