PBIS, or Positive Behavior Intervention Supports, is in it's simpilest form various strategies which have been implemented into the school setting to improve the behaviors the students exhibit.  PBIS also aims to be a preventative program.  In some districts, PBIS is also known as PBS or SWPBS (School Wide Positive Behavior Supports).

The chart above provides a breakdown as to how the PBIS system works.  Approximately 80-90% of the students will fall into the bottom teir, 5-10% will fall into the middle teir, and only 1-5% of students will make up the upper teir.  In the posts that follow, we will break it down further.
