What is PBIS?

Positive Behavior Intervention support is a collaborative, assessment-based approach to developing effective interventions for problem behaviors. It emphasizes the use of proactive, educative, and reinforcement-based strategies to achieve meaningful and durable behavior and lifestyle outcomes. PBIS aims to build effective environments in which positive behavior is more effective than problem behavior.

PBIS will allow us at Hartman Elementary the opportunity to provide a consistent and fair behavior plan.

Research shows that students achieve at a higher level when they know the expectations and feel safe.

Hartman Knights Mission

The mission of the Hartman PBIS team is to foster and promote a safe and positive school environment that enhances student learning through teaching and recognizing positive behavior.

CORE VALUES 

Voice Levels

Appropriate voice levels are expected in classrooms, hallways, the library, and other areas. Our voice level system begins at level 0 (no talking) and increases to level 3 for a loud voice.

Bullying

We have a zero tolerance policy regarding bullying, harassment, and related behaviors; and respond appropriately to situations involving harassment behaviors. We are careful to assess each situation, especially age appropriate social development behaviors as different than bullying situations, and respond appropriately.
