Positive Behavior Intervention Support (PBIS)

Curran believes in dealing with all discipline issues through PBIS.  The main focus of PBIS is to provide a clear system for expected behaviors in all school settings.  Our expectations focus on Being Safe, Being Respectful and Being Responsible.  Through PBIS, we work to create and maintain a school culture in which all school community members have clear expectations and understandings of their role in the educational process.

The purpose of implementing PBIS is to:                                          

• Create a positive school culture
• Create consistency among adults
• Strengthen family and community partnerships
• Reduce office discipline referrals
• Identify students in need of more support

Behaviors in and outside of class are categorized as minor or major.  Repeated minor behaviors will be reviewed by administration and/or our school counselor and parents will be notified.  Major offenses are dealt with by school administration and/or our school counselor.  Any major offenses are documented in our school data base and parents are notified.
