School Wide Positive Behavior Intervention & Support Plan

What is School Wide Positive Behavior Intervention & Support (SWPBIS)?

School-wide positive behavior intervention and support fosters a culture of discipline grounded in positive behavior intervention. Positive behavior support is a systems approach for establishing the social culture and individualized behavioral supports needed for schools to achieve both social and academic success for all. 
 
It is based on research that indicates the most effective discipline systems use proactive strategies designed to prevent discipline problems. Before consequences are given, students
must first be supported in learning the skills necessary to enhance a positive school climate and avoid negative behavior. In the event of misconduct, there are appropriate consequences in place to aid students in fostering positive behavior.
 
At Venice High School we have designed School Day Intervention (SDI) to support our students and provide opportunities to reflect on behaviors and decisions students make that are unsafe for their individual development, educational success, or for the school community. Any student who receives School Day Intervention (SDI) will be provided time to reflect on their decisions, complete missing assignments, and receive social/emotional support from trained staff and peers.
