Positive Behavior Supports

PBS (Positive Behavior Support) is a positive proactive system to provide a consistent building-wide discipline plan. PBS is meant to reinforce the positive behaviors of students, as well as support students who need extra assistance to reach the following school-wide expectations: Be Safe, Be Responsible, Be Respectful, Be Kind.

The PBS system organizes behavior management into a matrix of expected behavior which includes documentation, feedback, and interventions. We teach students expectations in a way to promote positive behaviors.

PBS provides opportunities for behavior to be explicitly taught and for positive behaviors to be publicly acknowledged. Problem behaviors will have clear consequences. Documentation and data in turn, provides staff at Tina-Avalon with the information needed to design and implement strategies promoting a school environment that is safe and conducive to learning.
