Positive Based Interventions and Support
Sudlow Intermediate Behavioral Expectations
What is PBIS?
Positive Based Interventions and Support provides a framework to help students improve academic and behavioral outcomes. It is a school-wide system with processes intended to teach behavioral expectations the same way as core curriculum subjects.
Sudlow Intermediate has a PBIS Core Team consisting of members representing administration, faculty, staff, including Mississippi Bend AEA PBIS Coach. The Core team meets on a regular basis and has the responsibility of implementing and monitoring the school-wide PBIS plan. The PBIS team meets to review the discipline data, track progress, identify areas to target for intervention across the entire building, communicate intervention data and findings, and plan for interventions(s).
The PBIS behavioral expectations and routines are taught in the classroom using specific lessons for the behavioral expectation to be taught with R.O.a.R.
