PBIS welcomes all students and families to Jones Middle School
Positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS) is an approach schools use to promote
school safety and good behavior. With PBIS, schools teach kids about behavior expectations and
strategies.
The focus of PBIS is prevention, not punishment. The broad purpose of PBIS is to
improve the effectiveness, efficiency, and equity of schools and other agencies.
PBIS improves social, emotional, and academic outcomes for all students, including students with
disabilities and students from underrepresented groups.
