PBIS
PBIS Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based, data-driven framework proven to reduce disciplinary incidents, increase a school’s sense of safety and support improved academic outcomes. More than 19,000 U.S. schools are implementing PBIS and saving countless instructional hours otherwise lost to discipline. The premise of PBIS is that continual teaching, combined with acknowledgement or feedback of positive student behavior will reduce unnecessary discipline and promote a climate of greater productivity, safety and learning. PBIS schools apply a multi-tiered approach to prevention, using disciplinary data and principles of behavior analysis to develop school-wide, targeted and individualized interventions and supports to improve school climate for all students.
At Foothill Knolls Academy of Innovation, we N.O.T.I.C.E. our students!
Students earn N.O.T.I.C.E. tickets when they display positive behaviors related to the school wide expectations. Every ticket earned is a chance for students to earn a prize in our weekly drawing.
