Families are critical players in improving
the important work of schools.......…
Parents are full partners in the decisions that affect their children.
Partnerships work best when there is mutual respect
and each partner can participate in the decision-making process.
When schools view parents as partners
and engage them in decision-making processes,
they realize higher levels of student achievement
and greater public support.

Families are key to the success of PBS!
Real change can only come
as a result of the commitments
of both the minds and hearts
of the total school community teachers, parents, students,
administrators and school boards.

The BIG 5 Questions about
Problem Behavior
1. Who are the students
generating the problems?
2. What types of problem
behaviors are occurring?
3. When are the problems
occurring?
4. Where are the problems
occurring?
5. How Often do problem
behaviors occur?
26
Eight Practices of PBS in CO
1. Establish Administrative Leadership: State, district and school
leaders’ active support
2. Develop Team-Based Implementation: Special and general
education staff plan and implement
3. Define Behavioral Expectations: Concrete, positive behaviors
that every student can remember
4. Teach Behavioral Expectations: Explain, model, practice and
process
5. Acknowledge and Reward Appropriate Behavior: For students
and adults
6. Monitor and Correct Behavioral Errors: Consistent redirection
and consequences for a continuum of behaviors
7. Use Information for Decision Making: Who, What, When, Where
& How Often
8. Build Parent Collaboration

The HOME Matrix

Use the principles of Positive Behavior
Support to identify strategies for setting
up predictable routines at home
o
Help families identify ways they can work
with the school to increase positive
behavior for children in all settings, home,
school and out in the community.
