  1. Welcome!! • Kaylen Gores • Teacher: fourth grade at Anne Sullivan in Minneapolis. • 907 students pre K -8th grade • Implemented PBIS in 2005-2006 school year • 4 principals in 9 years • Average about 20+ new staff members each year. • I am the only one of the original team to be trained on PBIS left at my site.

  2. About Sullivan • ELL 49% • HHM 3% • Special Education 21% • Free and reduced 93% • Advanced learners 9% • We share our building with another school • We also house ECSE, ECFE, and 3 autism classrooms, 3 CLASS classrooms and the citywide Deaf/hard of hearing school

  3. Creating Environments to Increase the Likelihood: Universals • Annually: • Revisit your set of expectations and teaching activities • Assess and address “problem spots” across school environments • Assess effective instruction and management in each classroom • High Rates of Positive Feedback

  4. What do we do? • Annually: each fall conduct a half day refresher for all staff around PBIS. Define it, set out expectations, answer questions, elicit feedback about what is going well and what needs work. • **our PD**

  5. During the year • Meet with team to discuss behavior: look at data, talk with behavior team members, and decide a focus area. • Plan and prepare for the monthly rewards. • Develop “helper” groups for teachers who are struggling with certain students and develop a system to support them.

  6. Staff involvement • Make sure to include minutes to all staff • Report out ODR and other pertinent information to staff (big picture effect) • Praise staff and students for effort and things that they are doing well!!! • Highlight re-teaching times and structures • AND…

  7. Be the Cheerleader!

  8. Analogy

  9. Without upkeep…

  10. Thoughts from a fourth grade PBIS teacher…. • You MUST maintain your staff PD, no matter what! • You MUST maintain your meetings with your team and build a core group of people to work with. • Your core group MUST be representative of your staff ….but…. They must WANT to be there (this can get a little tricky!)

  11. More… • Make sure to report your data often, to both administration and staff. Publish in your school newsletter (focus on the positive) • Get kids involved! Poster contests, peer leaders, etc. • Keep promoting, cheerleading and keeping PBIS in the “now”. • With each new administration they need to see the success that you have had with PBIS. Have things solid and in place.
