What is PBIS?

70% of educators say student behavior is the top challenge facing their school.

In a national survey, LiveSchool found that student behavior is a leading concern for teachers and administrators alike.
PBIS, or Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports, is a research-based and positivity-focused framework for addressing student behavior.
LiveSchool is a digital platform used by over 1,000 schools that directly solves the logistical pain points of implementing PBIS with fidelity.

PBIS is a positive, proactive, data-driven approach to behavior.

PBIS is a proactive approach to behavior improvement that uses clear, school-wide behavior expectations, teaching positive behaviors, reinforcing positive behaviors, and continuously using data to inform decision-making.

A proven framework for school-wide improvement.

CHALLENGE #1
PBIS doesn’t come with a tool for positive reinforcement or data collection.

LiveSchool is a proven solution for classroom reinforcement.

The LiveSchool platform makes it simple for teachers and other school staff to award points to students.
LiveSchool is more efficient than paper reinforcement, with features like a mobile experience, multi-selecting students, and automatic time-stamping of points and feedback.
Plus, students will love the “ding!” whenever a point is awarded!
CHALLENGE #2
Tools like SWIS focus on referrals, not positive classroom reinforcement.

LiveSchool collects all your Tier 1 data in one place.

With LiveSchool, you can award points and document negative behaviors all in one interface.
All data is tracked using your customizable school-wide behavior matrix.
Tracking negative behaviors does not subtract from a student’s LiveSchool points account, but does provide your team with invaluable data for monitoring student- and school-level trends.
CHALLENGE #3
It’s cumbersome for PBIS committees to measure fidelity and PBIS ratio school-wide.

LiveSchool provides user-friendly behavior insights.

The LiveSchool Insights feature provides instant access to data from all classrooms. Here are some of the things you can do using Insights:
  • View the PBIS ratio for the school, a grade, or a teacher.
  • View and celebrate the most engaged teachers in your system.
  • Access a student dashboard showing top behaviors and trends over time.
  • Determine the most frequent behaviors in a specific grade or class.
CHALLENGE #4
PBIS doesn’t provide a way to get parents involved in behavior improvement.

LiveSchool engages parents with weekly updates.

The LiveSchool Recaps feature gives parents a one-click solution for viewing student progress each week.
Recaps is the perfect balance, providing parents a proactive connection to teacher feedback without opening “pandora’s box” of real-time updates and two-way messaging.
Parents will be able to view points, comments, graphs of progress, and even the student’s real-time point balance in your Rewards system.

LiveSchool has given us an opportunity to measure the positive as opposed to the negative. Districts often measure negatives or referrals but we decided to measure positives. Now we have students talking about the positive points they have earned instead of the negative measures. It allows us to celebrate our students and is making a difference in our culture.
