PBIS is a research-based systems approach designed to enhance the capacity of schools to effectively educate all students, including those students with challenging social behaviors. Efforts are made to prevent troubling behavior from occurring in the first place, rather than reacting after there is a problem.

Visit the national PBIS website for more information.

Successful strategies from our PBIS schools.
