Positive Behaviors Intervention Supports (PBIS)

What is PBIS?

The Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports program is based upon a philosophy of recognizing positive contributions of students. Our goal is to help each child develop self discipline.

The home and school share the responsibility for developing good citizens. Parents, teachers and students must work together to maintain a safe learning environment.

As a part of PBIS, teachers, administrators, counselors, and support staff will have the responsibility to teach positive behavior expectations to students. PBIS means students will know exactly what is expected of them. Students who take responsibility to behave positively will be recognized and rewarded in a variety of ways.

PBIS means students will know exactly what is expected of them. Students who take responsibility tobehave positively will be recognized and rewarded in a variety of ways. Students will also know the consequences that will result when they choose NOT to meetthe school-wide expectations.
