My Project

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports, or PBIS, is a proactive approach that schools like ours use to improve school safety and promote positive behavior. As teachers continue to award paw points to students exhibiting exceptional behavior, students will redeem these points for prizes such as the requested press-on nails, basketballs, musical instruments, car toys, and other items.

PBIS empowers students to play a vitally important role in their education.

By establishing school-wide expectations, students are able to focus on improved academic performance. The basketballs, press-on nails, cars, and other items will be added to the PBIS Paw Store to encourage students to participate and get excited about school. Donating to this project will help keep our students engaged in the classroom and reinforce positive behaviors throughout the halls of our school.
