The Positive Behaviors Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program is a proactive way to teach all students appropriate school behaviors. Students are taught school-wide expectations to Respect Yourself, Respect Others and Respect Property in settings throughout the building. Students that meet these expectations are recognized through bi-weekly celebrations that take place in the classroom and the entire school. Conversely, students who fail to meet the school wide behavior expectations are retaught appropriate school wide behaviors. Finally, through the PBIS program, behavior data is kept on all students in order to tailor interventions to best meet the educational needs of each student.
