What is PBIS?

• PBIS stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports
• PBIS is not a curriculum but it is a framework to identify needs, develop strategies, and evaluate practice toward building a positive school culture.
• It is a way to create positive, predictable, equitable and safe learning environments where everyone thrives.

What does this mean for my student?

• Developing positive and effective student behavior is a group effort where students, teachers, support staff, administration and parents/families work collaboratively towards achieving this goal.

How can parents be partners?

• Ask if anything was sent home today.
• Support and reinforce PBIS at home
• Make sure that your child finishes his/her homework.
• Have the same expectations at home:
  • Be Safe
  • Be Respectful
  • Be Responsible
• Remind your child what the expectations are regularly.
• Recognize and reward your child when he/she follows the expectations
