What is PBIS? PR I DE PBIS is a research based approach or framework used to create a positive and nurturing school wide environment that improves learning outcomes for all students. It is strongly promoted by the USDE and the MDE. It is in fact the only resource listed in the federal legislation on education from 1997 known as IDEA.

“We Teach” “If a child doesn’t know how to read, we teach.” “If a child doesn’t know how to swim, we teach.” “If a child doesn’t know how to multiply, we teach.” “If a child doesn’t know how to drive, we teach.” “If a child doesn’t know how to behave,  we…   …teach?               …punish?” “Why can’t we finish the last sentence as automatically as we do the others?”   From the MDE Website: “Currently 24 percent of schools in Minnesota are implementing PBIS. Each year, the number of schools applying for team training continues to increase. And for good reason — the data tells a story of reductions in behavioral problems and suspensions leaving more time for learning”

PR I DE PBIS INTERVENTION STRATEGY Behavior Reflection Sheet Proposed Process: Teacher either sends student with sheet in the hall or to the office to complete.  If a student doesn't complete it, it will become insubordination and further consequences will be given by administration.  Student completes the Behavior Referral Form, returns it the referring teacher for signature, then brings it to their Advisory Teacher.  Advisory teachers keep form and determine if parent needs to be contacted PR I DE
