Sense of Belonging: Create school environments in which positive, pro-social behavior is the norm
Teach & Prevent: by teaching, prompting, and acknowledging the desired behaviors and doing so as relentlessly as we do academic behaviors. Make the desired behaviors more rewarding than the undesired ones.
Ensure equity and safety for all: by designing common systems and practices when students make mistakes, we are more intentional in using trauma-informed responses to behavior errors.
Data-based decision making: Data is key to ensuring fidelity and refining practices. PBIS is an evidence and research based framework that follows implementation science to ensure effectiveness and consistency. That is why it is mentioned in both federal and state education code.
