    PBIS methods are research-based and proven to significantly reduce the occurrence of problem behaviors in school, resulting in a more positive school climate and increased academic performance.

    PBIS is a 3-tiered model of behavioral instruction and intervention designed to provide students the proper intensity of support based on need. School-wide or Tier 1 PBIS includes 10 critical elements which schools implement as their core behavioral curriculum. The resources provided below are designed to assist with implementing School-wide PBIS to build and sustain a safe, inclusive and positive school environment for all students, staff, and families.

     

  • PBIS Resources

    BCPS staff can access Tier 1 Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) resources by going to the our PBIS SharePoint page.

    PBIS is a systematic framework to build a positive culture and community in classrooms and schools. It uses team-based planning and problem solving to implement evidence-based, positive behavioral interventions. The goal of PBIS is to support student achievement and success, while decreasing inappropriate student behaviors. PBIS calls on schools to overtly​ teach students behavior, just as they would teach any academic​ subject—like reading or math. ​
