School PBIS Behavior Guides

School PBIS Behavior Guides

The schools that are implementing PBIS are Park Avenue Elementary (ROAR), Sanfordville Elementary (PAWS), and the Middle School (ROAR). Scroll down for each schools associated behavior matrix.

Each school utilizes a behavior matrix so students understand the expectations for their behavior. With PBIS, our schools focus on acknowledging the positive instead of the negative.
