School-Wide Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS)

School-Wide Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a proactive, systems-level approach designed to promote positive behavior in schools. It involves establishing clear expectations for behavior across the entire school community, teaching these expectations to students and staff, and rewarding positive actions. PBIS aims to create a safe, respectful, and supportive environment by consistently applying these practices, reducing disruptive behaviors, and increasing student engagement. It relies on data to guide decision-making and ensure interventions are effective, ultimately fostering a positive school culture where all students can succeed academically and socially.
