PBIS
On August 25th, elementary students were invited to the auditorium for a PBIS assembly. PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) is an approach Three Rivers Elementary uses to promote school safety and good behavior. The focus of PBIS is to increase positive behaviors in students through setting clear expectations, teaching students the expectations and procedures, and rewarding positive behavior.
The goal of PBIS in schools is to build a positive school culture by teaching consistent expectations and positively reinforcing appropriate behaviors throughout the school building.
Mr. Biedenbach, Ms. Jackson, and Mrs. Cole used the assembly as an opportunity to revisit school rules and expectations. Three Rivers Elementary expects an inclusive, fun, and welcoming environment. Regardless of the fact that most of the students attended the same school last year, Mr. Biedenbach sets them up for success early by reminding them of the overall expectations and provides examples of how to be successful in order to have a fantastic year.
