Evan Sivo Named CVSD’s Behavior Systems Director

 

Evan Sivo has been appointed Behavior Systems Director for the Champlain Valley School District (CVSD). Mr. Sivo will begin his leadership duties on July 1, 2022.

The Behavior Systems Director is responsible for overseeing the CVSD ATLAS program (a highly specialized special education program for students with social-emotional disabilities) as well as working with CVSD leaders to provide district-wide leadership in the development of our systems of support for students who struggle with social-emotional learning (SEL). This position will help move forward the work of implementing our SEL systems of support.

Mr. Sivo graduated from Saint Michael’s College with a Bachelor of Arts in History, and a Master of Education degree in Special Education. He earned a post-graduate Certificate of Study in the Florida Institute of Technology’s Behavior Analysis Graduate Certificate program.

Evan joined CVSD in August of 2016 as a special educator at the Hinesburg Community School. He moved to the role of ATLAS Program Coordinator and Behavior Specialist in 2019. Prior to joining CVSD, Evan worked with the Howard Center as a behavior interventionist, a teacher interventionist, and a classroom teacher at the Baird School, where he earned an Excellence in Service Award.

Evan had this to say about assuming this new role in CVSD, “I am excited for the opportunity to examine our Multi-Tiered System of Supports and further the development of SEL. I believe social, emotional, and behavioral well-being is imperative to a student's success and leads to greater academic outcomes.“

CVSD’s Director of Student Support Services, Meagan Roy, shared, “Evan Sivo (the current lead special educator of the ATLAS program), a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and special educator, brings extensive expertise in social-emotional learning and behavioral systems. The committee was most impressed with his firm commitment to ensuring that our classrooms are accessible to all learners. We are excited for Evan to take on this new leadership role.”

We are very excited to welcome Evan on July 1.
