Pleasant Valley PBIS
3rd Quarter Update
The What and Why of PBIS at Pleasant Valley
Here at Pleasant Valley Elementary we are committed to PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports). At the beginning of the school year we spend time going over all of the expectations with students (see Matrix below). Students are expected to follow the common area expectations and are positively reinforced when doing so through our "Starbucks" program. Throughout the day students are able to earn "Starbucks" in all of the common areas outlined in our matrix. Those "Starbucks" are entered into a classroom drawing and then an office drawing where students have several opportunities to be recognized for their positive behavior. You may hear your students talking about the "Friday Five" or the "Weekly Office Winners" or even the "Monthly Giftcard Winners".
To start the second semester, we held an assembly to kick off the new semester and go over expectations and incentives. Below are the incentives for the 3rd quarter of school which goes from January 6th-March 19th.

3rd Quarter Incentives
The first goal is working to decrease the percentage of chronic absenteeism by 2% as compared to that of the 2018-2019 school year.
The second goal is to reduce the number of referrals coded as Aggressive Behavior by 10% as compared to the 2018-2019 school year.
With those two goals in mind, we came up with the two incentives below.
"Donut Miss a Day" - - - Attendance Incentive
At the end of each week we will look at the attendance for all classrooms. The room with the best attendance in the entire school will have donuts delivered to their homeroom on Monday morning. The top homeroom for each grade will also receive an Attendance Trophy to be kept in their classroom for the week.
