perceptions of school climate. The middle
and high school surveys also include items
about adolescent drug/alcohol/tobacco use,
self-harm ideation and behaviors, school
dropout, and parental involvement. The
survey provides information to determine
training support needs related to school

Competing, Inter-related National Goals
• Common core • Improve literacy, math, geography, science, etc. • Make schools safe, caring, & focused on teaching &
learning • Improve student character & citizenship • Eliminate bullying • Prevent drug use • College & career readiness • Provide a free & appropriate education for all • Prepare viable workforce • Affect rates of high risk, antisocial behavior • Leave no child behind • Etc….
Challenge #3
SWPBIS Message!
Successful individual student behavior support is linked to host environments or school climates that are effective, efficient, relevant, & durable.

outcomes?
I.C.i
Guidelines for Good Outcomes OUTCOMES
q Based on data q Locally important and meaningful q Applicable to all (culturally equitable)
• Students’ social competence and academic achievement
• Staff implementation of critical skills q Observable and measurable q Written as a goal
I.C.i
• Student behavior will improve.
Non-example Outcome Statement
How would you know?
Example Outcome Statement
• As a result of implementing PBIS during the 20XY-20XZ school year, ODR data will decrease by __% relative to that same period the prior year.
• As a result of implementing PBIS, school climate will improve and the school will feel better.
Non-example Outcome Statement
How would you know?
Example Outcome Statement
• As a result of implementing PBIS, staff, student, and parent surveys will indicate improved overall school climate (or target specific items related to acknowledgement, respect, etc.) as measured by an improvement of __ points on the Georgia Brief School Climate Surveys.

• During the first semester of PBIS implementation, staff members will teach expectations to students and “catch them being good.”
Non-example Outcome Statement
How would you know?
Example Outcome Statement
• During the first semester of PBIS implementation, staff members will implement PBIS with fidelity, as measured by achieving 70% fidelity as measured by the Tier 1 subscale of the Tiered Fidelity Inventory.
• During the first semester of PBIS implementation, staff members will be more positive toward students.
Non-example Outcome Statement
How would you know?
Example Outcome Statement
• During the first semester of PBIS implementation, 80% of staff members will meet or exceed a 4:1 positive to negative ratio as measured by calculating a ratio of positive tickets/acknowledgements to office discipline referrals (ODRs) per staff.

fit?
Guidelines for Culture & Context
For each item in your action plan, ensure: q Involve staff, students, & families in development q Contextually/culturally appropriate (e.g., age, level,
language) q Examine disaggregated data to ensure
implementation of each feature works for all subgroups of students

Spotlight on Alternative Settings & PBIS
Context Matters!
Successful Individual student behavior support is linked to host environments or school climates that are effective, efficient, relevant, & durable
(Zins & Ponti, 1990)
Non-public School Setting Specialized/Individualized
Intervention: unique population,
services, and training, which are typically administered
on case-by-case basis Targeted-group Intervention:
services organized by common needs
Universal Intervention: Minimal focus on
system-wide consistency
Features of Non-public School • Setting
– Urban area in the Western US
– Two locations across study (indicated in data) • Old public elementary school with “open” campus
• Private facility with “typically closed” campus
• Staff – Received training in a variety of interventions
• Enrollment: – Year 1: M = 39 (range 29-44) students
– Year 2: M = 52 (range 44-59) students – Year 2: M = 53 (range 48-57) students
• Age: 3-22 years old
• Disabilities: – Autism, – Behavior Disorder,
– Conduct Disorder, – Developmental Delay,
– Emotional Disturbance,
– …
(Simonsen, Britton, &
Young, 2010)

Single Subject Case Study
• Use caution when interpreting data: • Lack of replication or verification (can
not be certain if observed changes are the result of the intervention)
• Very small sample (1 school) restricts generalization
• Two phases: • Baseline (A): standard practice
• Intervention (B): SWPBS
(Simonsen, Britton, &
Young, 2010)
“Baseline” Conditions 2002-2003
Almost every student had a Behavior Intervention Plan, which was (a) based on a comprehensive Functional Behavioral Assessment/ Analysis and (b) developed by either a Master’s or Doctoral level behavior analyst/clinician

(Simonsen, Britton, &
Young, 2010)

Each classroom had a different system, used with all students, that approximated the features of a secondary intervention (i.e., increased opportunities for positive feedback and reinforcement)
Systems were inconsistent within and across classrooms Universal

Implementing SWPBS 2003-2005
• Introduced school-wide expectations – Be safe – Be respectful – Be responsible
• Operationally defined and explicitly taught expectations
• Created scripts for students with greater needs
• Increased active supervision, reinforcement, and error correction related to expectations
• Implemented Second Step—an evidence-based social skills curriculum Universal

Students still had individualized function-based plans, but expectations were consistent
We were able to focus on the students who “rose to the top” of the triangle
(Simonsen, Britton, &
Young, 2010)
Key Interventions for 1 Student used to decrease frequency of aggressive incidents
1) 1:1 instruction throughout the day, and 1:1 instruction in an area that is visually separated from other students for 40% of his day.
2) Daily review of schedule, rules/expectations, and available reinforcers, ensuring that there is consistency with token economy, rules/expectations, and staff language.
3) Use of an alternate reinforcement system (i.e., stickers toward large reinforcer).
4) Daily instruction in social skills, relaxation, and self-control techniques with his teacher.
5) Providing (a) frequent reminders of self-management techniques, (b) modeling of ways to take a break, and (c) visual prompts for replacement behaviors on his desk.
6) Pairing him with preferred staff during times that are identified as high probability times in his BIP.
7) Interspersing work and reinforcement within scheduled activity.
