I send the rubric electronically to the teachers who work with the student most with the header information already completed (names, dates) and ask them to send it back

This is a basic behavior chart (a football chart for a desk) from which the data can be entered into a graphing worksheet (same file). This could be modified for a student's choice (not just football). There are graphs created for two quarters that include a goal or aim line and a trend line along with the student's data.
