PBIS101
What PBIS is, what it isn’t, and what it doesn’t have to be.
PBIS101 is a brief, one-hour course for anyone who is new to Positive Behavior Interventions and Support (PBIS) or who is new to leading/implementing PBIS. Also a great resource for leaders familiar with PBIS and just looking for a refresher, this content can be scheduled online or in-person with as many or as few participants as you’d like. Schools and districts can also make the self-paced version available for teacher induction programs, mid-year hires, and new school leader onboarding.
What makes this course different is that participants will get to know all three tiers of PBIS, making the content relevant for caring professionals in any school or district, regardless of how far along their site might be with PBIS implementation. And, because PBIS is highly specific to each school building, the course emphasizes aspects of PBIS that are likely to work substantially the same across your system.
Students with ADHD can be (and typically are) exceptionally successful at school, provided school adults are equipped to understand them.
PBIS101 is the perfect training opportunity for any teacher, counselor, social worker, or school leader who is:
- Part of a PBIS team,
- Getting started with PBIS,
- Wants to know more about what PBIS is, is not, (and doesn’t have to be).
Most importantly, this training reflects how PBIS needs to evolve to serve our students effectively. PBIS is 60 years old, and what we know about teaching and learning has evolved considerably since then. PBIS 101 takes a look at past practice and invites new thinking when necessary, particularly around the purpose of recognition and accountability within PBIS frameworks.
Learn how Positive Behavior Interventions and Support can expand the time you and your team have available for learning and reduce unexpected behaviors throughout your campus.
PBIS Tier 1
School-wide essentials.
Tier 1 is where schools should usually begin their PBIS implementation. Together, we’ll uncover school values and build the systems necessary to live those values out loud throughout your campus and beyond.
PBIS Tier 2
Systems to provide some extra support and care.
Tier 2 is where PBIS begins to “sing.” Once built, your Tier 2 systems will be ready to support any students who needs a little extra support and care to be their best, all within a framework that’s easy to implement and monitor.
PBIS Tier 3
Whatever we can, for as long as it takes.
Tier 3 supports are for the student who is always on your mind and heart, and for the staff working to meet their needs. At Tier 3, we will work together to build systems of support for individual students that are based on a comprehensive look at overall wellness, student-led goals, and care for the entire team and family.
PBIS: Comprehensive Implementation
Whatever we can, for as long as it takes.
Tier 2 is where PBIS begins to “sing.” Once built, your Tier 2 systems will be ready to support any students who needs a little extra support and care to be their best, all within a framework that’s easy to implement and monitor.
Most importantly, know that starting out with PBIS will never require you to “start over” with anything you have already built that is working well for you. We are looking forward to building the kinds of classrooms and schools that those you serve will remember as warm, kind, and supportive places to learn.
