PBIS establishes a climate in which appropriate behavior is the norm

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS)

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based, tiered framework for supporting students’ behavioral, academic, social, emotional, and mental health. When implemented with fidelity, PBIS improves social emotional competence, academic success, and school climate. It also improves teacher health and wellbeing. It is a way to create positive, predictable, equitable and safe learning environments where everyone thrives.

PBIS…

• Establishes a social culture

• Provides behavioral supports

• Produces a school that is an effective learning environment for all students and staff

What will this look like for my child?

• Positive reinforcement (verbal, Viking Spirit tickets, certificates, whole group rewards, classroom rewards)

• Your child may have the opportunity to earn a tangible reward, and will also participate in several whole school Viking Spirit rewards throughout the year
