What Is Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (PBIS)?
Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (PBIS) is a framework or approach comprised of intervention practices and organizational systems for establishing the social culture, learning and teaching environment, and the individual behavior supports needed to achieve academic and social success for all students. Decades of converging research have consistently demonstrated that these strategies are individually and collectively effective and efficient. In addition, PBIS has relevant applications to educating ALL students.
Characteristics of PBIS schools include:
- a common purpose and approach to discipline
- a clear set of school-wide behavioral expectations
- procedures for teaching school-wide expectations
- a continuum of procedures to encourage appropriate behavior and discourage inappropriate behavior
