Problem Statement
“We give schools strategies & systems for developing positive, effective, achieving, & caring school & classroom environments, but implementation is not accurate, consistent, or durable. Schools need more than training & coaching.”
PURPOSE
Review rationale & strategies
for securing sustainable
funding, political support, &
visibility in support of SWPBS
implementation for
EVERYONE in school.
