6. PBIS REACHES ALL STUDENTS
Students who are:
At Risk
High Risk
Rule Followers
With PBS teachers can document when and why students are misbehaving. Once this is determined there are interventions that are in place to help prevent any further behavior problems and classroom disruptions.
Students who ALWAYS follow the rules can sometimes fall through the cracks and get left out. This is because teachers have to focus all of their energy on the students who are making bad choices and not recognizing students who are making good choices. PBS allows you to recognize these students.
