- POSITIVE BEHAVIORAL INTERVENTIONS AND SUPPORTS (P.B.I.S.).
At Phelps Luck we believe that all students have the right to learn in a calm environment where safety is maintained. It is the responsibility of every member of the school family: staff, students, and parents to ensure that the school environment is conducive to learning.
The Code of Conduct 1. Respect Self 2. Respect Others 3. Respect Property
The Code of Conduct is the basis for behavior school-wide. Specific ways to demonstrate the 3 R's (the teaching matrix) will be taught and reinforced throughout the school year. When the expectations of the Code of Conduct are not met, a hierarchy of consequences commences. All classroom and special area teachers will follow the same hierarchy. If a student’s behavior violates the code of conduct a staff member will mark their behavior calendar to indicate the level of hierarchy.
PBIS CONTINUED
Hierarchy of Consequences Level 1: warning Level 2: time out desk Level 3: time out desk or go to another room & fill out reflection form to be signed by parent Level 4: office referral Office discipline will also follow a hierarchy of consequences. Celebrating Positive Behavior Monthly Celebration: There will be a reward/celebration for the students who meet a monthly goal based on
their behavior calendar. Students will be invited to a fun 20-30 minute event. Students who do not attain the monthly goal will stay in their classrooms for behavior/social skills lessons.
Falcons: All students will be able to earn incentives for positive behavior throughout the day. Staff members will carry Falcon coupons and give them out to students who exhibit this behavior.
Falcon Store: Every two weeks students will be able to go to the Falcon store and trade in their falcons for prizes.
Behavior Support An essential segment of the P.B.I.S. program is teaching students the behaviors and social skills that they will
need to be successful in school. Through modeling, discussion and direct instruction teachers and guidance counselors will help students master these important lessons. Teachers will also use the program Second Step to teach social skills lessons related to the Code of Conduct.
