Students that came to the meetings in the summer asked that we (the staff) find a way to improve the school culture. They said that most high school kids.

What’s the deal with all the new expectations?

Students that came to the meetings in the summer asked that we (the staff) find a way to improve the school culture.

They said that most high school kids are adults and they act like it!

WE AGREE!!

So we’ve been looking at schools all over the state to see what they do for their kids.

We found PBIS. A system used by many schools around Kentucky.

You can search PBIS when you have a green card - lol

The overall theme (in short) of PBIS is to reward good behavior!

To do this, we have to establish a baseline for appropriate behavior.

So new

rules?

None of the expectations are new.

We only put them in writing.

Look at each of them objectively….

Red Card – Green Card

This is the same as far because the teacher has always posted their policy.

The difference is in the hall during class, but you are always encouraged to go to the office and call for any emergency!! Just ask!

Hallway Expectations

Nothing new here!

Just reminders of what has always been in place.

Restroom Expectations

Nothing new here either.

Just common courtesy expectations!

Classroom Expectations

Nothing here is new or unreasonable.

Cafeteria Expectations

Again….

So where does PBIS start and what is it?
