Narrative
Effective behavioral interventions can be catalysts for positive change in the classroom. PBIS is a proven, systems-focused approach that produces numerous positive outcomes, including:
-
Fewer problem behaviors, office referrals, and suspensions
-
Increases in on-task engagement and academic achievement
-
Higher levels of satisfaction with the overall school climate among students, teachers, and parents
The comprehensive, systemic, and individualized continuum of positive behavior support is designed to provide opportunities for all students, including those with significant emotional and behavioral issues, to achieve social and academic success. PBIS enhances the capacity of schools, districts, and states to adopt and sustain effective behavior and academic support practices.
