Purposes
• Identify Key features of School-wide PBS and
SWPBS that integrates culturally responsive
practices.
• Define implementation steps
• Describe District Leadership Team Roles and
Goals
• Describe District Level Support Structures
Needed for Sustainability
• Outline Next Steps
Basic Messages
• To improve academic successes of our
youth, we must also improve their social
success.
• Improving social success requires investing
in the school-wide social culture as well
as in strategies for classroom, and individual
student intervention.
• School efforts to improve academic and
social success must address equitable
outcomes for all groups.

Logic for School-wide PBS
• Schools face a set of difficult challenges
today
• Multiple expectations (Academic accomplishment,
Social competence, Safety)
• Students and staff have widely differing
understandings of school behavioral
expectations
• Traditional “get tough” and “zero tolerance”
approaches are insufficient
• Individual student interventions
• Effective, but cannot meet the demand
• School-wide discipline systems
• Establish a social culture within which both
social and academic success is more likely
What is School-wide
Positive Behavior Support?
School-wide PBS:
A systems approach for
establishing the social culture and individualized
supports needed for all students to achieve both social
and academic success.
Evidence-based features of SW-PBS
Prevention
Define and teach positive social expectations
Acknowledge positive behavior
Arrange consistent responses to problem behavior
On-going collection and use of data for decision-making
Continuum of intensive, individual interventions.
Administrative leadership – Team-based implementation

Increased attendance
Increased instructional time
Improved satisfaction of all
Common language and consistent processes
Drop out rate decreased by half
Unsafe incidents decreased by 2/3.

Proportionality
Minority disproportionality in suspension and
expulsion has been consistently documented
over the last 30 years.
• Black students suspended 2-3x as frequently
• Racial/Ethnic Disproportionality also found in:
• Office referrals
• Expulsion
• Corporal Punishment
• Students with disabilities over-represented:
• 11-14% of population
• Approx. 20-24% of suspensions

Making
Culture: the language, beliefs,
values, norms, behaviors, and
material objects that are passed
from one generation to another.
Every person on the planet is a
member of at least one culture.
(Glenn Hoffarth,2002)

Culture: What Is It?
CR-PBIS is not….
• PBIS, itself, is not new; it’s based on a long
history of behavioral practice and effective
instructional design/strategies
• CR-PBIS is not a specific practice or curriculum;
it’s a general approach to preventing problem
behavior
• CR-PBIS is not limited to a particular group of
people; but rather for all students and all adults
• CR-PBS is not incompatible with other efforts
that based in prevention and education
• CR practice, itself, is not new.
CR-PBIS is new…
• It’s the integration of culturally responsive
practice within the evidence-based schoolwide PBS framework
Training Outlook
• Develop culturally responsive school-wide PBS
plan by:
• Explicitly discussing inequity based on race,
ethnicity, poverty, and disability
• Training all school staff to become more self-
aware about their beliefs and awareness
of other cultures
• Using data to identify target areas
• Engaging with students and families to
integrate different cultural perspectives
WHY be/come Culturally
Responsive?
• Absence of any groups experience and voice
leaves all groups at a disadvantage to
appropriately and completely interact as
humans.
• It detracts from all of our humanity when
WE consciously or unconsciously leave out
individuals’ culture.
• Prevents conflict and misunderstandings
amongst different cultural groups
Self Awareness
•
•
•
•
Participants will define culture
Participants will recognize they have a culture
Participants will compare their culture to another
Participants will identify potential personal bias and
influence of stereotypes
“Not only does culture allow us to
maintain our sense of identity and how we
perceive ourselves, it also represents the
lens through which we view and evaluate
the behaviors of others” ( Neal, McCray,
Webb-Johnson, & Bridgest, 2003, p. 49)
Three Things To Remember About
Culture...
•No culture is monolithic …. There are
cultures within cultures
•Culture, language, ethnicity and race form
part of our identity, values, beliefs and
behaviors. Other influences include: socioeconomic status, education, occupation,
personal experience, community, family and
individual personality.

•Culture is dynamic, not static

Self-awareness
Schools using culturally
responsive SW-PBS have:
• Staff engaged in
• developing awareness of students’ and their own cultural
backgrounds.
• difficult conversations that directly address disparities
evident in data.
• Team-based systems for Targeted and Intensive behavior
support
• Students identify faculty/staff as actively promoting their
success
• Teams meeting regularly to:
• Review disaggregated data
• Determine if PBIS and culturally responsive practices are being
used
• Determine if practices are being effective for all student subgroups
and their families
Summary
Invest in prevention
Build a social culture of competence
Focus on different systems for different
challenges
Build capacity through team processes, and
adaptation of the practices to fit local context
Use data for decision-making
Directly engage in difficult conversations
Begin with active administrative leadership
