PBIS
This week we implemented an approach to discipline called
Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS). PBIS is a proactive systems approach to
establishing the behavioral supports and social culture needed for all students
in a school to achieve social, emotional, and academic success.
We began by establishing clear expectations for behavior that was
taught, modeled and reinforced across all settings and by all staff.
