Now is the time to assess how your culture team is doing with implementation of Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports. The Benchmarks of Quality should be taken by the leadership team in the fall and spring to help create a plan of action. This can be taken electonically through PBISApps. Contact Mary Perfitt-Nelson for more information.
New School Climate Survey! PBISApps has created a survey for students to help bring their voice to the table. Check it out!
Community Building Protocol for your Staff! This protocol is used to understand preferences in group work. We have used this protocol to build community with staff. People enjoyed the conversation. Much laughter followed. Try it!

Coming Events
SAVE THE DATES!!!!
Students bring their culture to our schools and classrooms. The teaching staff become part of that culture. The challenge is to create, collaboratively, a culture of learning within the space given.
We are excited to offer a comprehensive array of opportunities to help district staff become more intentional about the experiences they design. The overall vision of the series was created collaboratively with Oakland County teachers and Oakland Schools staff from School Quality and Special Education who considered the crosswalk between teacher evaluation, important frameworks and the thinking of leading researchers in the field.
The series is sure to offer something for everyone. Preventative or responsive; Saturdays, half-days, virtual and face -to –face opportunities will exist.
