PBIS Team Meeting in Mankato

Today in Mankato PBIS staff members were completing the final day of training for implementation of PBIS.  We were able to share our philosophies and brag a little bit about our implementation.  We also were able to take some time to discuss Functional Behavior Assessments which are used to identify and deal with repeated problem behaviors. These plans are for students with a history of severe problem behaviors and resistance to intervention.  The FBA's allow for a system of support that allows for a team of well trained and have direct experience, behavioral expertise in dealing with the student.  What the FBA allows is a method to increase positive behaviors and removal of problem behaviors.  Here are some photos of the entire cohort sharing their bulletin boards and collaborating.
