Scotts Valley High School was awarded a Bronze Medal by California PBIS.  This award highlights our school's commitment to implementing PBIS as a multi-tiered system following the National PBIS Blueprints for professional development, implementation, and evaluation. During the 2022-23 school year, Scotts Valley High School was recognized as a "Bronze Medalist" by California PBIS for implementing a Positive Behavior Intervention System (PBIS) with fidelity to the national framework.

In order to be recognized for this award, Scotts Valley High School teachers and staff demonstrated evidence-based, culturally relevant practices which focused on building the capacity for all stakeholders.  Throughout the course of last year, District leadership and county PBIS representatives teamed with Scotts Valley High School staff to undergo a rigorous, months-long process that evaluated our current practices and future goals around behavior interventions across our campus.
