Strand A Coaching Day 1
Coaching prepares school administrators and site (internal) coaches to lead their school through the planning and implementation of PBIS.  Participants will also learn about coaching and team facilitation roles, use of behavioral data for decision-making, and progress-monitoring for fidelity of implementation and student outcomes. Each Site Coaching Day is based on the PBIS systems logic components: Professional Development, Coaching & Technical Assistance, Evaluation, and Content Expertise. Each day emphasizes the coaches’ role in articulating the basic elements of PBIS, understanding the phases of implementation, understanding systems change, identifying resources, facilitating site team and staff activities, facilitating the data-based decision making process and assessing team effectiveness. Throughout their site’s implementation process, site coaches have the opportunity to network with other site coaches. The overall goal of the PBIS Site coaching series is to build site capacity toward sustainability of PBIS, by interconnecting site team days to meet the requirements in the Tiered Fidelity Inventory and effective evidence based classroom practices.
