P.B.I.S. On The Bus
District 15 has a district-wide PBIS Bus Green Team that is representative of district PBIS and transportation administrators, building administrators, bus drivers and bus aides. They meet monthly to review data in order to develop lessons and incentives for the bus.
In early August, all bus drivers and aides are trained on the bus expectations, how to respond to inappropriate behavior, and how to acknowledge students in a positive proactive way with bus bucks. Bus bucks can be redeemed at school in the same way as school acknowledgements (e.g., Lion’s Pride, WOW, ROAR). A booster training and question/answer session is held in late winter with all bus drivers and aides as well.
In the Fall of 2018, students participated in a PBIS Bus Art Contest where they created drawings demonstrating the “Be Safe” expectation on the bus. This year, the theme of the PBIS Bus Art Contest will be the “Be Respectful” expectation. Additional information will be shared with students through their art and classroom teachers.
For questions or comments regarding bus expectations, please reach out to your building administrator.
