Feature Purpose: Administration and at least 80% of staff agree to implement PBS as a way to support students and staff. Commitment provides the buy-in necessary for implementation with fidelity.

Feature Outcomes: This means that PBS Universal Essential Features are implemented by all staff with all students with sufficient intensity, integrity and consistency such that 80% or more of the students respond by consistently displaying expected behaviors.

Proficient Level of Implementation is:

·     We regularly and consistently address our building BIP including PBS mission/purpose and goal(s) by sharing data related to goals at monthly faculty meetings and provide staff development to address BIP PBS goals.

·      All our administrator(s) know and can verbalize the school PBS goals, regularly and consistently make PBS a priority, integrate PBS into all building documents, staff development and staff meetings and consistently counsel staff who need support to implement PBS. All our administrators regularly acknowledge staff who implement PBS.

·      We have a building PBS action plan that thoroughly addresses each PBS Essential Feature, is written annually, reviewed at least twice per year and revised as needed.
