What is PBIS?
PBIS (School-Wide Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports) is a proactive, team based framework for creating and sustaining safe and effective schools. Emphasis is placed on prevention of problem behavior, development of prosocial skills, and the use of data-based problem solving for addressing existing behavior concerns. School wide PBIS increases the capacity of our school to educate all students utilizing research-based school-wide, classroom, and individualized interventions. If warranted, some students may benefit from additional reteaching opportunities and natural consequences throughout the year.
5 main components to our PBIS plan
1. Define-clear and concise definition(s) of behavior expectations
2. Teach-direct teaching of behavior expectations
3. Remind/Reinforce-regular reminders & positive reinforcement for students meeting expectations
4. Celebrate-recognize and celebrate successes on a regular basis
5. Correct-reteach and redirect students when applicable
October Key of Focus: Balance
When we practice the key of balance, we are mindful of ourselves and others while focusing on what's meaningful and important in our lives.
When we're in balance, we make time for the things that are important to us. Staying in balance is an ongoing process about choices. We are constantly having to make choices about what we do, what we say, how we feel and what we think! Balance is all about considering everything that is meaningful and important to us when we make those choices about how we spend about how we spend our time and energy. When we find the right balance, we are happy, healthy, productive and fulfilled!
The routines that students learn at school can carry over to promote positive behavior outside of school. You, as parents, play an influential role within the PBIS framework by becoming involved within our school setting and supporting our 3 B’s-be respectful, be responsible, and be safe. Your continued support is greatly appreciated!
1. Encourage your child to earn as many stamps on their stamp card as possible.
2. Use any behavioral situation as a learning experience by discussing positive choices and natural consequences.
3. Help celebrate successes as we do in school on a daily/monthly basis!
4. Keep lines of communication between school and home open. We are here to work together to provide the best learning environment for each child.
We are always trying to catch students making positive choices by rewarding students with stamps on their Stamp Card. Students are awarded stamps throughout the school day as a form of positive recognition for demonstrating any of our 3 B’s. Our regular celebrations vary throughout the year ranging from an extra recess to school wide bingo. We love celebrating our wonderful accomplishments!
Just like we teach academics, PBIS provides us a platform to also address the social/emotional needs of our students. On a regular basis students, with their classroom teachers, will participate in various lessons and role playing activities. They will proactively be taught ways to deal with various social situations that support PBIS using a Social Emotional Learning curriculum.
