PBIS
POSITIVE BEHAVIOR INTERVENTIONS AND SUPPORT
Embedded Files
Dear Parents,
Cordua Elementary is participating in an important district initiative. It is called Positive Behavior Interventions and Support (PBIS). PBIS is a process for creating a safer and more effective school. It is a systems approach, enhancing the capacity of schools to educate all children by developing research-based, school-wide, and classroom behavior support systems. The process focuses on improving a school's ability to teach and support positive behavior for all students. Rather than a prescribed program, PBIS provides systems for schools to design, implement, and evaluate effective school-wide, classroom, non-classroom, and student specific plans. PBIS is not a program or a curriculum. It is a team-based process for systemic problem solving, planning, and evaluation. It is an approach to creating a safe and productive learning environment where teachers can teach and all students can learn.
We can't wait to teach you more throughout this school year!

2024 - 2025 Goals for Cordua's PBIS Team!
EDUCATING STUDENTS AND PARENTS ON EVERYTHING PBIS
Teach, re-teach and reinforce behavior expectations
Every year students will tour areas of the school, read the PBIS posters in all designated areas and learn what is expected of them. Teachers will refer to these posters when addressing behavior concerns. These behaviors will be re-taught following all holiday breaks in order to remind students of the expectations. Students can earn Comet Cash for following the expectations, and reminding others. They can then purchase items or experiences from the Comet Store. This reinforces their positive behavior.
Educating Parents about PBIS
Our Goals are to:
Develop a website for parents to learn how we are implementing PBIS
Incorporate PBIS information in our monthly newsletter.
Train volunteers with the help of our school administrator regarding PBIS recognition and language.
RECOGNIZING GREAT THINGS
Student and Staff Public Recognition
Student of the Week - Monday mornings a student from each class will be recognized for their Outstanding Behavior, have their name placed on the Bulletin Board in the cafeteria and have lunch with the principal at the end of the month.
Monthly Rallies - Once a month teachers will honor students for great effort, work and behavior!
Trimester Rallies - Three times a year teachers will honor exceptional students for their exceptional effort, work and behavior. Parents may be contacted (if their student is receiving an award) to attend outdoor rallies along the fence line or join the audience in the cafeteria in the event of rain.
