1.15 Annual Evaluation

Resource: Tiered Fidelity Inventory Version 2.1

1.15 Annual Evaluation

Tier I team documents fidelity and effectiveness (including on academic outcomes) of Tier I practices at least annually (including year-by-year comparisons) that are shared with stakeholders (staff, families, community, district) in a usable format.

Date Sources

• Staff, student, and family surveys
• Tier I handbook
• Fidelity tools
• School policy
• Student outcomes
• District reports
• School newsletters

Scoring Criteria

0 = No evaluation takes place or evaluation occurs without data

1 = Evaluation conducted, but not annually, or outcomes are not used to shape the Tier I process and/or not shared with stakeholders

2 = Evaluation conducted at least annually, and outcomes (including academic) shared with stakeholders, with clear alterations in process based on evaluation

Main Idea

Implementation of the core components of PBIS is more likely if the Tier I team both self-assesses implementation status at least annually AND reports their status to relevant stakeholders (i.e., school community, school board, etc.)

Guiding Questions

1. Are fidelity tools identified, administered and used to inform action planning?

Surface Level to meet criteria

• Is there an evaluation conducted for Tier I systems?
• Does this happen annually?
• Are the outcomes shared with all stakeholders (faculty, students, family, board members, superintendent, etc.)?
• Are the outcomes clearly linked to a Tier I action plan?
