Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS)
Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS)
Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports (PBIS) is a multi-tiered instruction and intervention model for providing academic and behavioral supports. The framework subscribes to the Tier 1, 2 and 3 models of support. Data-based decisions are made by school-team members to provide specially designed academic or social-emotional behavioral interventions with ongoing progress monitoring.
Support is provided by facilitating specialized professional learning or workgroups in SWPBIS, behavior and Cornell University’s Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) program. Additional support can be provided through direct consultation with in-house PBIS/MTSS-B school teams / internal PBIS coaches / Social Emotional Learning Leads and school-based TCI facilitators in framework and program implementation and sustainability.
NYCDOE Strong Resilient NYC Initiative (Link) Social-emotional skills are vital for student success inside and outside of school. Research has consistently shown that SEL supports Academic Achievement, Student Well-being, Success in School and Life and Positive Social Behavior.
To support our students in developing these essential skills, NYCDOE is implementing an SEL screener and intervention program that will help in providing targeted, highly responsive support to each individual student. We will build on each student's strengths while identifying skills they need to further develop. Link for NYC Families
