The three main areas of the building that form our focus are the classroom, hallways, and cafeteria. The following matrix delineates the desired behaviors the staff will teach and reinforce.

Overview

PBIS is a research-based combination of practices that creates a positive school climate in which students can achieve behavioral and academic success.  Students learn appropriate behaviors through instruction, practice, feedback and encouragement. With consistency in behavior expectations, students learn that there are both consequences and rewards for their choices. (brm.abss.k12.nc.us)

Incentives

Students will receive positive reinforcement, recognition, and "tickets" when they display positive behaviors.

On Fridays, tickets may be redeemed at the bookstore for school supplies, spirit-wear, and special privileges.
