6. Main Messages PBIS is a foundation for the next generation of education. Effective (academic, behavior) Efficient (time, cost)

7. SWPBIS: Building Effective Educational Settings

8. Level of Focus Students/ Families = Unit if Impact Schools = Unit of Analysis Districts= Unit of Implementation State/Federal=Unit of Policy Relevance

10. Values + Theory + Science Values guide selection of outcomes Theory of Change guides selection of practices Implementation Science guides stages of adoption and adaptation

11. 11 Tertiary Prevention: Specialized Individualized Systems for Students with High-Risk Behavior Secondary Prevention: Specialized Group Systems for Students with At-Risk Behavior Primary Prevention: School-/Classroom- Wide Systems for All Students, Staff, & Settings ~80% of Students ~15% ~5% School-Wide Positive Behavior Support

12. Primary Prevention: School-/Classroom- Wide Systems for All Students, Staff, & Settings Secondary Prevention: Specialized Group Systems for Students with At-Risk Behavior Tertiary Prevention: Specialized Individualized Systems for Students with High-Risk Behavior ~80% of Students ~15% ~5% Main Ideas: 1.Invest in prevention first 2.Multiple tiers of support intensity 3.Early/rapid access to support

13. Primary Prevention: School-/Classroom- Wide Systems for All Students, Staff, & Settings Secondary Prevention: Specialized Group Systems for Students with At-Risk Behavior Tertiary Prevention: Specialized Individualized Systems for Students with High-Risk Behavior ~80% of Students SCHOOL-WIDE POSITIVE BEHAVIOR SUPPORT

14. Examples of Behavior Supports Continuum of Supports Universal Prevention Identify expectations Teach Monitor Acknowledge Correct Targeted Intervention Check-in, Checkout Social skills training Mentoring Organizational skills Self-monitoring Intensive Intervention Individualized, functional assessment based behavior support plan

15. Remember that the multiple tiers of support refer to our SUPPORT not Students. Avoid creating a new disability labeling system. Reading Behavior Math Health

16. “Lucille Eber Effect” (LEE) Mean Rate of Outcome Measurement P <.001, effect size = 6.71

17. PBIS: The Next Five Years Extending and Sustaining SWPBIS Demonstrating the role for SWPBIS in major national areas of concern: Equity Discipline disproportionality Effective education of students with more severe needs School climate, bully prevention, restraint/seclusion Elaboration Mental Health Juvenile Justice SISEP, SWIFT Extended Impact High Schools High Needs Schools Tier II, Tier III

18. The Next Five Years Expand the Effectiveness of PBIS Framework Culturally Responsive Simplify Evaluation PBIS Implementation Inventory Sustainability Tier II, Tier III High School More accessible professional development

19. PBIS Implementation Inventory Algozzine, B., Barrett, S., Eber, L., George, H., Horner, R., Lewis, T., Putnam, B., Swain-Bradway, J., McIntosh, K., & Sugai, G (2013). School-wide PBIS Implementation Inventory. OSEP Technical Assistance Center on Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. www.pbis.org. Designed to assess implementation of PBIS at any one, two OR all three tiers Tier I = 14 items Tier II = 12 items Tier III = 17 Items Improved Focus on 1.Culture 2.Classroom 3.Family TIC PBIS BoQ Implementation SSAS Inventory SET PoI

20. PBIS Imp Inventory Summary

21. The Next Five Years Expand Collaboration School Mental Health Juvenile Justice Inclusive Systems (SWIFT) Scalable Systems (SISEP)

22. The Next Five Years Expanding the Impact of SWPBIS High School/ Drop out

23. What to take away if you are: Getting Started SWPBIS is an evidence-based framework for making schools more effective learning environments. Every school in the U.S. can implement Tier I PBIS with the resources they currently have this year.

24. PBIS is a Framework Based on Core Features Traditional Approach Manuals Certified Trainers/ Books/ Workshops Emphasis on external experts PBIS Approach Core features of effective environments Multiple strategies to achieve those core features Evidence-based Fit your context Continuous access to fidelity measures to assess if core features are in place, AND access to outcome measures to assess if there are benefits for students. Emphasis on building local capacity for sustained implementation Select, Train, Coach, Performance Feedback

25. Avoid “PBIS Lite”

26. PBIS is about Implementation The ideas behind PBIS are easy… it is the implementation that is hard.

27. PBIS is about Implementation Measure Fidelity Measure frequently Use measures for action planning Stages of Implementation Exploration Installation Initial Implementation Full Implementation Build Local Capacity Trainers Coaches Evaluation Leadership

28. Improvement Cycles SISEP 2012

29. Number of Schools Implementing SWPBIS since 2000 September, 2013 19,408

30. Number of Schools Implementation SWPBIS (Tier I) by State September, 2013 Illinois 14 States with more than 500 schools Florida North Carolina Wisconsin

31. Total number of schools using SWPBIS Total number of schools measuring fidelity Schools at Tier I fidelity Number of PBIS schools (Green) Implementing, (Red) measuring fidelity and (Blue) at Tier I fidelity by state >75% ------------------- Connecticut Iowa Kentucky Michigan Minnesota Missouri Oregon South Carolina Vermont Florida Illinois North Carolina Wisconsin

32. What to take away if you are: Getting Better Tier II and Tier III Making PBIS “fit” for all schools Mental Health Academic Gains Establishing Local Training and Coaching Capacity Juvenile Justice

33. Literacy Risk Tier I Risk Tier II Risk Tier III Risk

34. What to take away if you are: Getting Sustainable Measuring district capacity as well as school capacity Building systems for braiding initiatives (combining funding, combining strategies)… using the multi-tiered system model as a foundation for all efforts. Predictors of sustainability Collection and use of data Strong administrative support Implementation with fidelity/ Classroom Systems Big Message: SWPBIS is Efficient, Effective and Affordable only if it sustains.

35. On your way Home Take stock… celebrate what you have done Be clear about your next step -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What will it take to build effective exemplars? How will you build local training, coaching and evaluation capacity while developing exemplars? How will you collect the fidelity and impact data needed to demonstrate that SWPBIS is “doable” and benefits students? Build whole school cultural of competence at the beginning. Build district capacity as well was school performance

36. Academic/ Behavior Expertise
