THE PBIS TEAM HANDBOOK

What is PBIS?

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based, data-driven framework proven to reduce disciplinary incidents, increase a school’s sense of safety and support improved academic outcomes. More than 22,000 U.S. schools are implementing PBIS and saving countless instructional hours otherwise lost to discipline. The premise of PBIS is that continual teaching, combined with acknowledgement or feedback of positive student behavior will reduce unnecessary discipline and promote a climate of greater productivity, safety and learning. 


PBIS schools apply a multi-tiered approach to prevention, using disciplinary data and principles of behavior analysis to develop school-wide, targeted and individualized interventions and supports to improve school climate for all students.

ccPS PBIS DISTRICT LEADERSHIP team


The PBIS District Leadership Team (DLT) supports the district and schools' implementation 

of a Comprehensive Integrated Tiered Model of Prevention. Durable and adaptable school-

wide PBIS in a school requires systemic support that extends beyond an individual school. 

It is important to organize multiple schools (e.g., cluster, complex, district, county, state) so 

that a common vision, language, and experience are established. This approach allows 

districts and states to improve the efficiency of resource use, implementation efforts, and 

organizational management. 


An expanded infrastructure also enhances the district and state level support (e.g., policy, 

resources, competence) and provides a supportive context for implementation at the local 

level. Resources are available here to support District Leadership Team meetings, 

evaluation, planning, and data analysis.
