The California State PBIS Coalition has recognized nine AUSD schools for their implementation of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports during the 2021-22 school year. The recognition levels range from Platinum (the highest) to Bronze.
PBIS is a proactive and school-wide approach to defining, teaching and supporting optimal student behavior. It emphasizes acknowledging and directly teaching appropriatel behavior as opposed to punishing inappropriate behavior. It also provides a continuum of supports for students who struggle to meet the school expectations.
Not every school site’s PBIS program is the same. But all robust PBIS programs consist of: clearly defined school-wide expectation, explicit teaching on those expectations, acknowledgment of appropriate behaviors, and individual support where needed. More information is available on our PBIS web page.
Schools recognized for their implementation last year are:
Platinum Level Recognition
- Edison
- Otis
- Lincoln
- Paden
Gold Level Recognition
- Bay Farm
- Ruby Bridges
Silver Level Recognition
- Maya Lin
- Alameda High School
Bronze Level Recognition
- Earhart
We are deeply grateful to our staff for the hard work and vision they bring to the work of cultivating positive and safe schoolwide cultures.
