SCOE Spotlight
School safety is a complex subject, and at the heart of a safe and healthy school is a positive culture where students and staff feel supported, understood and valued, providing a strong foundation for developing resiliency, perseverance and a positive sense of self. Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based, tiered framework for supporting students’ behavioral, academic, social, emotional, and mental health. When implemented with fidelity, PBIS improves social emotional competence, academic success, and school culture. It also improves teacher health and wellbeing. PBIS is a way to create positive, predictable, equitable and safe learning environments where everyone thrives. In keeping with SCOE's core values of providing leadership, collaboration and support, we have hired a remarkable Prevention and Early Intervention Supports and Services Coordinator to assist school districts and charter schools with enhancing or implementing robust PBIS systems. 3
