  12. Administrative Issues Critical Team Members Moving the Project Critical Promotion Goals

  13. Team Composition • Administrator • Grade/Department Representation • Specialized Support • Special Educator, Counselor, School Psychologist, Social Worker, etc. • Support Staff • Office, Supervisory, Custodial, Bus, Security, etc. • Parent • Community • Mental Health, Business • Student

  14. Moving the Project • Initial Impressions: • PBIS would maintain at a school after the administrator moved on. • What May be Happening • PBIS has a low likelihood of maintaining after administrator leaves. • Administrator initiates PBIS at new school.

  15. Sample Teaming Matrix

  16. Sample Administrative Benefit(Office Referrals) 2001-2002 2277 2002-2003 1322 = 955 42% improvement = 14,325 min (@15 min per referral) = 238.75 hrs = 40 daysof administrative time

  17. Sample Administrative Benefit(Suspensions) 2001-2002 250 2002-2003 125 = 125 50% improvement = 5,625 min (@ 45 min/suspension) = 93.75 hrs = 16 daysadditional time

  18. What’s Coming? RTI and PBIS Structure: National/State/Local Data Collection Legislation
