PBIS
PBIS: What is it?
PBIS stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. PBIS is the system that the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction has endorsed to address behavior as part of the Wisconsin RTI framework. The
Johnson Creek HS/MS will be implementing their own PBIS program (The Blue Jay Way) during the 2014-15
school year. Currently we have a PBIS team that is setting the program up to be implemented next year. More
information will be provided in the next couple of months concerning the program and what it is going to entail.
