PCOE Public Facing Web Site

Welcome

Placer County Office of Education is dedicated to supporting the academic and behavioral success of all students. Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (PBIS) is a critical framework supporting schools in creating a climate where all students can achieve and learn. PBIS is one of the foremost advancements in the school-wide system of supports for schools promoting proactive strategies for defining, teaching, and supporting students and positive school climate. PBIS is a tiered approach to systematic behavioral interventions and positive acknowledgment of students enhancing the capacity of schools, families, and communities.

Information

PBIS Framework

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support uses a multi-tiered systems framework to provide a continuum of positive behavior interventions for all students within a school. The intervention continuum includes Tier 1, which is Primary Prevention for all students; Tier 2 provides additional targeted group interventions and supports for students needing more supports than Tier 1 provides; Tier 3 provides specialized and individualized supports and interventions for youth needing more intensive interventions.

Connect with PBIS

The California PBIS Coalition (CPC) is a collaborative organization using evidence-based, culturally relevant practices to build the capacity for all stakeholders in the implementation of PBIS as a multi-tiered system following the National PBIS Blueprints for professional development, implementation, and evaluation. www.pbisca.org

Trauma and Equity Informed PBIS

Link to 2021/2022 PBIS Training Descriptions

Consisting of two years of coaching and training, Trauma & Equity Informed PBIS provides a framework for school sites to enhance PBIS to better meet the needs of students that have experienced trauma, discrimination, and/or disenfranchisement. The initial work covered in this sequence focuses on background knowledge for PBIS teams with strategies and resources for strengthening the understanding of trauma and its effects on cognition and behavior for the entire school site. PBIS teams then work to enhance their PBIS practices by applying strategies aimed at building resiliency, fostering authentic student and community voice, and creating more culturally affirming environments. Finally, this sequence helps schools examine their systems and establish routines to identify inequities and address these systems issues through continuous improvement. Readiness recommendations: completion of Tier 1 & 2 training, and a score of 70% or higher on Tier 1 Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI). Suggested completion of School wide Evaluation Tool (SET) with score of 80% or higher.
