Positive Behavior Intervention Support (PBIS)
Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports (PBIS)
1. “What is School-Wide PBIS?”
Improving student academic and behavior outcomes is about ensuring all students have access to the most effective and accurately implemented instructional behavioral practices and interventions possible. The PBIS Team at Culbert Elementary leads the implementation of PBIS through a program of school-wide positive behavior expectations, incentives, and recognition opportunities for students and staff.
2. “What Does School-Wide PBIS Emphasize?”
In general, PBIS emphasizes four integrated elements:
(a) data for decision making,
(b) measurable outcomes supported and evaluated by data,
(c) practices with evidence that these outcomes are achievable, and
(d) systems that efficiently and effectively support implementation of these practices.
3. What Outcomes are Associated with Implementation of PBIS?
Schools that establish systems with the capacity to implement PBIS with integrity and durability have teaching and learning environments that are
More engaging, responsive, preventive, and productive
Address classroom management and disciplinary issues
Improve supports for students and
Most importantly, maximize academic engagement and achievement for all students.
At the heart of PBIS is the individual responsibility to be a Rockin' CROC. The KWC Crocs ROC Pledge is recited at the beginning of each week on the KWC Morning Show:
I pledge to myself, on this day,
To be kind, in every way.
When I respect myself and others too,
That is the best thing that I can do!
Crocs roc, let’s say it again!
Respectful, organized citizens!
