9. What is SWPBIS? A team-based process including a broad range of systemic & individualized strategies for achieving important social & learning outcomes. A proactive approach to teach, monitor, and support school-appropriate behavior for ALL students. A focus on preventing problem behavior of any/all students at the school-wide, classroom, non- classroom & individual levels. 9

10. Relies on the use of research-based behavioral and instructional principles. Recognizes and builds upon the strengths of your school. Comprehensive by using a variety of supports. Emphasis is on creating a positive school climate. Focuses on the critical link between instruction and desired student behavioral outcomes. Data-driven decision making is key to design and sustainability of behavior plan. What is SWPBIS? 10

11. Ultimate Purpose of SWPBIS Ultimate purpose of Positive Behavior Support is to increase student achievement. 11

12. What SWPBIS IS NOT A packaged curriculum A quick fix Newest, flashiest behavior program Just about tangible reinforcers Just about discipline A special education program Just for “some” of the students 12

13. How can SWPBIS Help? Schools implementing SWPBIS with fidelity report: 20-60% reductions in office discipline referrals Improved faculty/staff satisfaction Improved administrator perceptions of school safety 13

14. How can SWPBIS Help? Reducing discipline incidents and office discipline referrals promotes safe, productive school environments Proactive school environments increase the likelihood of academic success 14

15. What must a Facilitator do? Develop strong district and administrative support Establish a Core Team Involve all faculty and staff Create a system of both district and building level coaches 15

16. Strong Administrative Support Minimum of 3-5 year commitment to the project Provide consistent support for team meetings Provide access building discipline data (office referrals) 16

17. Active Administrative Leadership is Essential… 1. To Implement SWPBIS: Commit Time and Resources for Initial Training Data Collection System is Available 2. To Support SWPBIS: Participate in All Team Meetings Publicly Support Team Efforts and SW-PBIS Process 3. To Sustain SWPBIS: Commit to 3-5 Year Implementation Plan Commit to On-going Professional Development 17

18. Begin by forming a building level core team:  Administrator  Grade / Department Representation  Specialized Support  Support Staff  Parent  Community How do we implement SWPBIS? 18

19. Role of the Core Team Completes a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the school Facilitates work with school staff to design and implement services and supports based upon needs identified in the assessment Meets regularly and communicates with all stakeholders Helps to deliver training components to staff Monitors on-going progress and adapts plan as needed 19

20. All Faculty and Staff are Involved Complete Self-Assessment Provide Consensus Define Classroom Expectations Explicitly Teach and Reinforce the Expectations Participate in School-wide Events 20

21. District Coach vs. Building Coach  Necessary for large scale implementation  Supports ongoing training for new schools  Gets the District “To Scale”  Support the Core Team with implementation 21

82. Team Implementation Checklist (TIC) Question 1: How is our Universal SWPBIS team functioning? 82

83. TIC Rationale The Team Implementation Checklist is designed as a “progress monitoring” tool for school teams implementing Universal PBIS elements. The TIC should be completed by the full team (preferable with the district coach). Information from the TIC should be used to guide development of an action plan. The TIC typically is completed each month (or every other month) until a team rates 80% of the TIC items as “Achieved” for three consecutive administrations.

87. TIC Reports Two reports available 1.Implementation by feature 2.Overall implementation 87

88. TIC: Implementation by Feature Report Percentage implemented and partially implemented for each feature 88
