OUR PBIS CREED: As a Coastal Seahawk, I will show respect to everyone. I will be open- minded. I will accept responsibility for my actions, and I will reflect on my choices.”

What is PBIS? WE CALL IT SOAR! PBIS is: - a positive behavior management process to create safer and more effective schools - a system of clear schoolwide expectations with consequences and incentives - intervention when you need help - recognition and celebration for your successes

What does PBIS do for you? Students are recognized and acknowledged for positive behaviors: Outside lunch, free seating in cafeteria, dress down, snacks at lunch, homework pass and more! Students receive interventions to help them refocus their unsuccessful behaviors. teacher-student conference, parent contact, reflections, learning lunches, parent conference, administrative referral.

How Does PBIS Work? All students follow the same set of rules and expectations throughout all areas in the building. These rules and expectations are displayed as a matrix, which is posted in every area of the school. When students follow the rules and expectations, they are acknowledged. When students do not follow the rules, there are planned guidelines to help them get back on track.
