Systematic Positive Behavior Support

Systematic Positive Behavior Support (PBIS) is an approach designed to enhance learning environments by promoting positive behavior, reducing unwanted behavior, and improving overall school culture. It involves setting clear expectations for behavior, teaching these expectations to students, and consistently acknowledging positive behaviors. This strategy emphasizes prevention over punishment, using data to assess how well it’s working and making adjustments as needed. By fostering a supportive environment, PBIS aims to create a community where students can thrive academically and socially, making schools safer and more conducive to learning.
