Welcome to the Essential Features of Universal PBS

 

There are nine Essential Features of "Universal PBS" (the bottom portion of the PBS pyramid). This page focuses on the first eight, as these Essential Features can be implemented universally  in all non-classroom settings without the ninth EF.  Classroom PBS is the ninth Essential Feature and has it's own separate section on this web page because of the complexity of implementation in that setting. 

 

Columbia Public Schools has focused on implementation with integrity of the first eight "Universal" Essential Features  of Positive Behavior Support in non-classroom settings. During the 2005-2006 school year particular attention was paid to commitment, team process, communication, data and defining expectations. During the 2006-2007 school year particular attention was paid to directly teaching social skills with integrity and providing frequent, positive feedback to students that was both specific, to the behavior observed and contingent to meeting the standard of the desired behavior.
