Continued Challenges

As I previously stated my major project is to implement the PBIS program. I would not describe it as a well-oiled machine at this point be definitely a work in progress. I have noticed in certain areas student behavior is improving but the commonality is in those areas teachers are consistently rewarding students with school cash.  In the upcoming faculty meeting I will ask teachers to complete a survey that will provide feedback on if they think PBIS is working in the school or not. I expect this survey to identify if the program is effective, ineffective, or not having any major effect on students at all. One of the proposed suggestions to help motive teachers was to have administration reward teachers more consistently with teacher reward cash. The new hope is to have teachers excited about rewarding students with cash so they can receive teacher cash of their own that provides them the opportunity to redeem the cash with adult prizes. Another method to involve teachers is to provide monthly updates of the school behavior data in hopes to help teachers understand what is causing the most problems. I am constantly trying to figure out ways to get everyone motivated about PBIS, so far it has momentum but we still have a ways to go.
