 Best Practices
Established expectations- . The first critical feature for SWPBIS is to
establish clear and consistent school-wide expectations (McKevitt &
Braaksma, 2008, p. 740).
Teaching the expecations- Behavioral expectations must be taught to
students (McKevitt & Braaksma, 2008, p. 740).
Using data- Behavioral incident or office referral data are efficient, effective,
and naturally occurring ways to monitor the impact of the universal PBIS on
student performance (McKevitt & Braaksma, 2008, p. 743).
 Current Direction for Action Plac
Professional Development-
Give teachers the necessary tools
Teachers buy-in will increase
Students will get weekly lessons
Consistency of enforced expectations
 Action Plan for PBIS
Tahquitz High School
Hemet, CA
Problem to be Addressed: A variety of state and local sources demonstrate that there is a need to focus on creating a positive and
engaging climate at Tahquitz High School where students feel valued, supported and safe. The number of suspensions and
behavioral incidents fluctuated during the 2016-2017 school year. Further, there is an increase of suspensions and incidents
among the 9th grade students.
Goal One (Use SMART criteria): By October 15, 2017, all teaching staff at Tahquitz High School will attend a PBIS training to
establish clearly defined processes, guidelines and expectations so teachers can implement PBIS in their classrooms to improve
student behaviors.
