PBIS Consulting for Schools

Practical support for schools in Arizona, Illinois and beyond

TGS Educational Consulting provides PBIS consulting for schools that want simple routines, strong Tier 1 systems, and coaching that fits the realities of daily school life. I work with schools throughout Arizona and Illinois as well as with districts across the United States. Together, we help teams create PBIS systems that center relationships, reflect the values of the community, and give every adult the tools they need to support students well.

PBIS that works for real schools

Positive Behavior Interventions and Support is a proven framework for building a positive school culture and improving student outcomes. The strongest PBIS systems are not about posters or spreadsheets. They are about shared language, consistent routines, supportive relationships, and a clear understanding of what helps students succeed.

When PBIS is done well, every adult in the building understands what the school values and how to bring those values to life in classrooms, hallways, and common spaces. When students need additional support, teams respond quickly with interventions that match student needs. No one waits for six to eight weeks of data before offering help that could begin today.

Where traditional PBIS training falls short

Many schools receive PBIS training that feels disconnected from daily practice. Staff attend a few sessions, create posters and matrices, and receive a binder that rarely gets used. Important areas like trauma informed care and social emotional learning are often left out of the work. The training may reach a small leadership team, but it rarely reaches the entire staff in ways that change practice.

Schools deserve PBIS support that feels useful, collaborative, and connected to the goals they care about most.

PBIS consulting that serves your entire school community

My approach to PBIS professional development is grounded in real school life and centered on the adults who make PBIS possible. Every session is designed to help educators feel supported, knowledgeable, and ready to use PBIS in ways that align with their work and their students.

Here is what this can look like on your campus:

PBIS leadership development
Coaching for site teams that need clarity, shared direction, and routines that work.

Tier 1 tune ups
Support for schoolwide expectations, flow of the day, hallway and common area routines, and recognition systems that feel natural for staff and students.

CICO training and support
Practical Check In Check Out routines that focus on daily coaching, simple data use, and student centered conversations.

Staff wide professional development
Sessions that bring your entire school community into the work so PBIS becomes a shared effort rather than a task assigned to a few.

Branding and artifact creation
Creation of matrices, flowcharts, visuals, and simple tools that match your school’s identity. Your teams focus on the work rather than formatting documents.

Implementation coaching
Ongoing support that helps your team apply new routines, troubleshoot challenges, and keep PBIS meaningful throughout the year.

Recognition systems that make sense
Many schools feel pressure to run token economies or maintain PBIS stores that require time and energy that staff do not have. My approach keeps recognition simple. When recognition is rooted in values, connection, and real moments in the school day, teachers can use it consistently and students understand why it matters.

PBIS training that evolves with your school

Every school is unique. Your PBIS systems should reflect the culture, values, and strengths of your staff and students. Whether you are beginning PBIS for the first time or strengthening what you already have in place, I can help your team build routines that feel clear, supportive, and possible.

If you would like to explore PBIS by topic, learn more about CICO, or see examples of tools schools are using, I am glad to share resources and ideas.

A next step if you want one

If you want to talk through PBIS goals for your school or district, email me what you’re working on anytime! I am glad to hear what your team is working on and share ideas that may help.

If you are looking for something you can use right away, the PBIS Resource Hub is open to you. It is a collection of practical tools and short guides that support Tier 1 systems and CICO routines.

When done well, PBIS isn’t just a set of posters or procedures. Instead, it’s a culture shift, grounded in relationships, supported by data, and sustained through inclusive practices that meet the needs of all students.
