Parent Engagement in a PBIS School
To be successful, PBIS needs to be a partnership between home and school. Prevention of problem behaviors includes promoting positive teacher-student, student-student, and school-family relations. This day will assist site teams in guiding parents to use the principles of PBIS to set up predictable routines at home and in the community. The team will be guided through a process for creating and using Home Behavior Matrices and Family Cool Tools to help families and school staff partner in teaching children additional behaviors and skills that align with school-wide expectations. Tools for ongoing parent communication and outreach will be included in this day of training.
