Positive Behaviors Interventions & Supports
Avalon teachers, staff, and members of the PBIS Team seek to support the academic, social, emotional, and behavioral competence of all students. The PBIS Team meets monthly to address the following interventions and supports:
- Tier I: Universal practices are experienced by all students and educators across all settings to establish a predictable, consistent, positive, and safe climate.
- Tier II: Targeted practices are designed for groups of students who need more structure, feedback, instruction, and support than Tier I alone.
- Tier III: Indicated practices are more intense and individualized to meet the challenges of students who need more than Tiers I and II alone.
