Positive Behavior Interventions and Support (PBIS)

Our staff has taken a school-wide approach for teaching appropriate behaviors in order to optimize academic achievement for each student. It is a systematic approach that establishes and reinforces clear behavioral expectations. It is also fully aligned with our Mind Up and Second Step behavior program. Positive Behavioral Support encompasses a variety of methods that help students understand the behavioral expectations for different settings on our campus (i.e., classroom, hallway, sidewalk, bus, playground, cafeteria and with substitutes.) Overall, we are teaching and reinforcing our students to: Be Safe, Be Thoughtful, Be Accountable, and to Be Respectful. Student receive "Starbucks" for exemplifying STAR behavior while at school. Classes can earn star stickers for class rewards like popsicles, pizza parties and other rewards.
