Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) Implementation

District Report Card Measure for Implementation of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS)

District implementation of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is notated on the Ohio School Report Cards as “yes” or “no.” The district report card measure is based on schools’ self-report of one of six letter codes for PBIS implementation in EMIS. The six codes are described below: *

  • A. Work on implementing PBIS has not yet begun.
  • B. Exploration and Adoption – Researching PBIS, exploring readiness, and securing staff and administration agreement to implement PBIS.
  • C. Installation – Creating the PBIS team, completing PBIS team training and establishing initial systems, data-decisions, policies and practices that will be required to implement PBIS.
  • D. Initial Implementation – Rolling out and implementing PBIS schoolwide, with a focus on Tier I supports.
  • E. Full Implementation – Implementing PBIS with all systemic components and a range of interventions (Tier I, II and III supports).
  • F. Innovation and Sustainability – Routinely checking fidelity and outcomes of implementation using national assessments and revising and updating practices and systems as needed.

 

In 2019-2020, a school and district will receive a “yes” for implementation when it has a code of B, C, D, E or F.

In 2020-2021, a school and district will receive a “yes” for implementation when it has a code of C, D, E or F.

In 2021-2022, a school and district will receive a “yes” for implementation when it has a code of D, E or F.

In 2022-2023, a school and district will receive a “yes” for implementation when it has a code of E or F.

 

A district receives a “yes” for districtwide implementation of PBIS if all schools receive a “yes.” A district receives a “no” for districtwide implementation of PBIS if any school building in the district receives a “no.” This business rule applies to all standalone preschools as well.

*These codes are based on the phases of PBIS implementation outlined in the PBIS Implementation Blueprint published by the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) Technical Assistance Center on PBIS.
