Presentation Abstract
This presentation offers a Title I school's early implementation of Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports (PBIS). Initial focus will apply to the universal (Tier I) application, where a shared leadership model utilized the collective experiences of educators and school-based mental health professionals. Secondary discussions will highlight the importance of community-based involvement, with primary examples noted in state-level representatives.
Additional topics will highlight the use of the Second Step Curriculum in instilling self-regulation and social skills at a Title I school. This will accompany particular strategies employed in various settings in the school setting (e.g., classroom, cafeteria, hallways, etc.). Participants will witness a modeling of examples for classroom and home use.
Final discussions will focus on the cultural components of implementing a PBIS framework. This will involve a year-to-year comparison of office disciplinary referrals (ODRs). Implications for future practice will be offered in a Q&A session.
