P.R.I.D.E

At our school, PRIDE is at the heart of our Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program. PRIDE stands for being Positive, Respectful, Inclusive, Dependable, and Engaged. The values we strive to instill in every student. Through PBIS, students are taught clear expectations and are recognized for demonstrating positive behaviors that reflect PRIDE. When students show these qualities, they earn points or tickets, which they can trade in for fun experiences, special privileges, or tangible rewards. This positive reinforcement shows students that good choices are the way to go and helps them take ownership of their actions.
PBIS is a research-based framework used in schools across the country to improve student outcomes and create a favorable school climate. PBIS focuses on prevention, consistency, and positive reinforcement. It helps reduce disruption, increase academic engagement, and foster a safer, more inclusive environment for all students. By teaching and celebrating positive behaviors, we empower students to grow both socially and emotionally while building a strong, respectful school community.
