What is PBIS?
PBIS (Positive Behavior Intervention and Support) is an evidence-based, data-driven framework proven to reduce disciplinary incidents, increase a school’s sense of safety, improve school climate, and support improved academic outcomes for all students.
Our Focus:
The purpose of PBIS is to establish a climate in which appropriate behavior is the norm by proactively teaching behavioral expectations and acknowledging students for following them. This is a much more positive approach than waiting for misbehavior to occur before responding.
