What is School-wide PBIS?

Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports is a schoolwide system of supports that include proactive strategies for defining, teaching, and supporting appropriate student behaviors to create a positive school environment. A continuum of positive behavior supports for all students within our school is implemented in all areas including the classroom and non-classroom settings (such as hallways, buses, and restrooms). Attention is focused on creating and sustaining supports for all children and youth by making targeted behaviors less effective, efficient, and relevant, and desired behavior more functional.
