PBIS Planning
May/June
- Conduct end-of-year celebrations! (Students & Staff)
- Review and share school-wide outcome data with staff, families, and your District PBIS Coordinator.
- Evaluate current team and determine if additional team members are needed or possibly team reconstruction (Tier 1 Team vs. Tier 2/3 Team)
- Evaluate and determine if team roles need to be adjusted, changed, or clarified in more detail.
- Meet with team and school leadership to discuss PBIS budget needs for next school year for staff training/support, additional work hours, acknowledgements and celebrations/events.
- Plan for next year’s PBIS staff orientation and student kickoff sessions. Put these dates on the school calendar now.
- Review progress made towards goals (TFI & SIP) and adjust goals/interventions for next school year for continued progress.

Panorama Survey
Panorama Survey EOY window April 25th - May 6th
Once the Panorama Survey results are released please set aside time to discuss the results as departments, building teams, and leadership. As you review and discuss please center your conversations around bright spots and opportunities to grow across in reference to each of the 3 stakeholders (staff, students, and families). This is a wonderful time to look at trends between the data results of the 3 surveys provided this school year (fall, winter, spring). As a district we are focusing on school climate and supportive relationships, including teacher- student relationships. These areas are excellent places to start and/or continue your work.
District Panorama Goals
Increase Family Survey Response Rates- 30%
District SEL Competencies of Focus
Emotional Regulation - How well students regulate emotions.
Self-Efficacy - How much students believe they can achieve academic outcomes.
How Panorama Supports District/Region Priorities
Students who participate in SEL programs make increased academic gains and improve classroom behavior & stress management, which leads to even more academic gains!
