WHAT IS PBIS? PBIS – Positive Behavior Interventions and Support – is a school wide approach to discipline for creating a safer and more effective school. PBIS works to educate all children by developing a school wide and classroom discipline system. PBIS focuses on improving a school’s ability to teach and support positive behavior for all students. With PBIS, instructional time in the classroom is more effectively used and the overall school environment is calm and promotes learning for your child.
PBIS GOALS
1. to reduce and eliminate disruptive behaviors
2. Maintain a safe and positive learning environment for all students
3. Promote communication between home and school.
Student Recognition
The Lee County Primary School Staff believes in frequent recognition of students who have shown positive
behavior. In our efforts to reinforce positive behavior, students are rewarded
daily for their actions with buckaroo bucks that are entered daily for an afternoon
drawing.
As part of our PBIS process, teachers and other staff members use evidence-based practices to increase student learning and decrease classroom disruptions. To keep students on task in a positive manner, we do the following when teaching academics
and behavior: Constantly teach and refer to our
school wide expectations. Provide students with more praise
than corrections Talk to students with respect using
positive voice tone. Actively engage everyone in the class
during instructions Use pre-correcting, prompting, and
redirecting as we teach. Look for the positive first and provide
positive, immediate, frequent, and explicit feedback.

What can you do to help your child stay on the
path to Positive Behavior?
Together, the home, school and community share the responsibility for developing good citizens. Parents, teachers and students must work together to maintain a safe learning environment. Parents can help by doing the following: 1. Reinforce the expectations. 2. Keep in touch with your child’s
teacher. 3. Encourage your child to use
appropriate language. 4. Practice caring phrases with your
child such as “Thank you”, “Excuse me”, “Please”, and “I’m sorry”.
5. Join with other parents for PTO meetings and other school activities.
6. Praise and give attention to good behavior.
When you stop rewarding expected behavior, expected behavior goes
away.
