5. Discipline Continuum The PBIS Committee identified examples of inappropriate behavior into two categories to determine what behaviors are expected to be addressed in the classroom or by the administration. Level One Behaviors- Do not require administrator involvement and do not significantly violate the rights of others. They are disruptive types of behaviors. An Opportunity Room referral form is filled out after the five previous procedures of the behavior monitoring tool have been completed. Level Two Behaviors- Significantly violate the rights of others and may put others at risk or harm (fighting). For severe behaviors, fill out a PS74 and send to the office.
