Student Expectations

"PBIS is a proactive systems approach to preventing and responding to classroom and school discipline problems.  Emphasis is directed toward developing and maintaining safe learning environments where teachers can teach and students can learn."

Behavior Management System

Staff will be using a classroom behavior chart, or “clip chart”, to reward and correct student behavior. It is critical to provide consistent and fair discipline procedures in the classroom and throughout the school. To be successful with PBIS staff will:

• Teach students the expectations, procedures, and routines so expectations are clear for student behavior 

• Teach students about the PAWS ticket reward system

• Reward students with “clipping up” and/or PAWS tickets (Each teacher has a list of rewards from which students can choose. For example, your child might earn the reward to bring in a stuffed animal to visit for a day.)

• Provide appropriate consequences for inappropriate behavior

• Handle the problem in the classroom as much as possible to minimize missed instructional time

• Consult with administration for perpetual behavior problems so a plan can be made to help correct the behavior
