administrative support

Administrator(s) attended training, play an active role in the PBIS process, actively communicate their commitment, support the decisions of the PBIS team, and attend all team meetings.

Administrator(s) support the process, take as active role as the rest of the team, and/or attend most meetings

Administrator(s) support the process but don’t take as active role as the rest of the team, and/or attends only a few meetings

Administrator(s) do not actively support the PBIS process.

Benchmarks example:Scoring Guide

STEP 2

PBIS Coach asks every PBIS Team Member to complete the School-Wide Benchmarks of Quality Team Member Rating Form independently─ Do not give a Scoring Guide to team members

Giving a deadline is helpful (e.g. submit at next month’s meeting, within 1-2 weeks, etc.)

STEP 2

Coach collects Team Member Rating Forms Coach tallies all responses provided by team

members using the Team Member Rating Form: Tally Sheet

STEP 2: Scoring team member forms

For items with a range of 0 to 1:─ 1 = In Place─ 0 = Needs Improvement or Not in Place

For items with a range of 0 to 2:─ 2 = In Place─ 1 = Needs Improvement─ 0 = Not in Place

For items with a range of 0 to 3:─ 3 = In Place─ 2 or 1 = Needs Improvement─ 0 = Not in Place

STEP 4

Coach will report back to the team using the Team Report page of the Benchmarks of Quality: Scoring Form

Coach leads team through a discussion of the identified areas of strength and weakness

This information should be conveyed as “constructive feedback” to assist with action planning

STEP 5

Coach adds up all the points on the Benchmarks of Quality: Scoring Form

Coach submits scores on pbisassessment.org 70% score or higher equals implementing PBIS

with fidelity (75 points or higher)
