What is PBIS?
PBIS helps schools be strategic and thoughtful about student behavior, so all students can succeed.
PBIS stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. It has been shown to improve kids' performance at school, attendance, and grades. It reduces bullying and keeps kids out of trouble.
Instead of waiting for kids to act out, PBIS focuses on prevention--making school a place where behaving appropriately is the norm. The whole school makes expectations for behavior clear and rewards students for meeting expectations. PBIS is not a curriculum, intervention, or practice, but rather a decision-making framework. It guides how a school approaches behavior, from one stage to the next, so learning for all students improves.
