What is PBIS?
PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports)
is a behavior support system that recognizes the positive contributions of students. The main goal is to help each child develop self-discipline to make good choices.

The PBIS process focuses on improving a school's ability to teach and support positive behavior for all students. Common routines and uniform language with respect to appropriate school behaviors are consistent throughout the school. As a result, instructional time is more effectively used for teaching and the overall school environment is calm, pleasant and conducive to learning.

At Benton Elementary, the CHIEF Guidelines for Success lay the foundation for student expectations in all school settings.

Why does BES need PBIS?
PBIS has been adopted as Benton's school-wide behavior system after analyzing the results of a needs assessment survey taken by the faculty at BES spring 2011. Certain common areas, such as the playground and the hallways were concerns. The survey indicated students has a lack of understanding and expectations and the need for consistency in faculty expectations. A PBIS tema has been formed to ensure consistent implementation of the program.
