Pottsgrove School District is committed to a learning environment free of bullying and harassment. We implement Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS), in all five schools as a preventative measure to bullying, harassment, and discrimination.

What is PBIS?

PBIS is a research-based framework that teaches and supports positive behaviors for ALL students, focusing on building a safe, positive environment. Key aspects include:

  • Teaching Positive Behaviors: Clear expectations for behavior in all settings.
  • Consistent Reinforcement: Rewards and praise for positive behavior.
  • Data-Driven Decisions: Using data to identify and address behavioral issues.
  • Early Intervention: Supporting students struggling with behavior early on.

The benefits of implementing PBIS include:
Fewer behavioral issues
More instructional time
Better attendance for student success.
