Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports (PBIS)

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a framework for organizing systems and practices that focus on creating a positive and supportive school culture for all.  PBIS is NOT a curriculum or packaged intervention. PBIS is a decision-making framework that guides selection, integration, and implementation of evidence-based academic and behavioral practices for improving important academic and behavior outcomes for ALL students (OSEP Center on PBIS).  This three-tiered model focuses heavily on school-wide core features (Tier I), which are in place at our school and are available to all students at all times. 

School and classroom expectations are intended to promote an atmosphere that is conducive to learning and to ensure the physical and emotional safety of every child on our campus. The school follows a progressive discipline system, which includes behavioral expectations and consequences. The school wide behavioral expectations matrix below are written in general terms. There might be some slight variations by individual teachers in their classrooms.
