I have found when teens (I have 2sds's and 1x sdd as well as my own 18yo) is that you have to lay the boundaries are clearly as you do when they are 3.
This auto course will get him nowhere if he continues to act like a turkey. No one wants to employ a turkey so you have to give him the bigger picture so he can see how his behaviour stuffs HIM up in the long run. Then he makes his choice.
They get what you mean by "stop it" but sometimes they don't know what to do to replace the negative behaviour - so give him some tools for that. Like I said - asking him what he could do to prevent another classroom screaming match (whilst reminding him of his own responsibilities when it comes to his behaviour) might surprise you.
