Move around the room and find four different partners, one for each item in the place setting If someone signs your paper for fork, you must do the same for him/her. Once you have four different signatures on your placemat partners sheet, find your spoon partner and introduce yourselves and share your burning question about SWPBS data with each other. This is the first person with whom you will work in a little while. Keep your Placemat Partners sheet for both days of this workshop.

1.Become familiar with and use TIPS with SWIS data for effective decision-making. 2.Understand how precision statements, hypothesis development, and recommendations drive the development of the School-wide Evaluation Tool (SET) Report provided by your coaches. 3.Know how to collect and summarize data from the School Safety Survey. 4.Generate recommendations based on the results of the School Safety Survey and using the School Safety Survey Data Review Manual. 5.Use a process for reviewing end of year data and generating action plans.

School teams are involved in regular meetings in which they are expected to identify problems and develop academic and behavioral solutions that improve the quality of the school as a learning environment. There is increasing access to data about student academic and behavior performance. There is a need to help teams identify how to use data productively… and efficiently. Workshop participants have been involved in regularly conducted Tier1/Primary Preventions team meetings and are fluent in effective and efficient meeting procedures.

Major Evaluation Questions Related to Desired Outcomes 1.Are our schools safe? Getting Safer? 2.Are we getting decreased problem behavior? 3.Are we implementing SWPBS with fidelity?

SWPBS Data Sources Office Discipline Referral Data Suspensions, Expulsions, Remands School-Wide Evaluation Tool (SET) School Safety Survey TCAP, Gateway, and benchmark tests

For each data source, we want to know… Why do we need this data? Who collects the data? What is measured by the data? When are the data collected? How are the data summarized? Where do we go from here?

Are we getting decreased problem behavior?

Review current status and identify problems early –Use data on a regular basis (every two weeks) to monitor key indicators, and identify problems before they become difficult Refine a problem statement to a level of precision that will allow functional solutions Use data to test possible solutions. Use data to assess if solutions are working –If many students are making the same mistake it typically is the system that needs to change not the students..

ODRs are recorded by ALL faculty and staff on students in the building who demonstrate behavior that violates one or more school rules. Paper form, often in triplicate, that documents important information concerning events surrounding an occurrence of problem behavior, including name of student, problem behavior, location, time, motivation, referring staff, date, and grade level. ODRs are universal across schools and, if designed effectively, will give school teams information to make informed decisions at least 80% of the time.

ODRs are turned in to a data recorder once the building administrator has intervened. The ODR information is entered into a discipline data management system (e.g., SWIS). Visual summaries are reviewed by the Tier 1/Primary Preventions team charged with reviewing the data AND with the full faculty and staff on a routine basis. Each time a student engages in rule violating behavior (any major OR multiple minors as per school procedures for documenting problem behavior.)

An efficient system for gathering discipline data, web-based computer application for data entry and report generation, and practical process for using decision information for decision making.

TIPS Team Initiated Problem Solving (Horner, Todd, Newton, Algozinne, and Algozinne) A five step process to define a problem and develop a workable implementation and evaluation plan

TIPS Four year grant 2008-2012 Goal: Develop a problem-solving model for school teams that results in active use of data to (a) define problems, (b) build solutions, and (c) transform solutions into practical action plans. Steve Newton, Anne Todd, Bob Algozzine, Kate Algozzine, Rob Horner

Goals Define logic for data use Define problem statements that can lead to functional solutions Define standards for using data to refine problem statements and build solutions Define core elements of behavioral solutions Assist teams with using data for problem solving

Main Idea The process a team uses to problem solve is important: –Roles : –Facilitator; Recorder; Data analyst; Active member –Organization –Agenda; Old business (did we do what we said we would do); New business; Action plan for decisions. –What happens BEFORE a meeting –What happens DURING a meeting –What happen AFTER a meeting

Main Ideas Decisions are more likely to be effective and efficient when they are based on data. The quality of decision-making depends most on the first step (defining the problem to be solved) Define problems with precision and clarity

Improving Decision- Making Problem From: Solution

Common Errors in the Problem-Solution Sequence: Define solution before the problem Define broad problem that does not allow people to focus on functional solutions. Students are behaving in a disrespectful manner. Failure to use data to confirm/define problem One teacher states that cafeteria is out of control… Agree on solution without plan for implementation or evaluation Agree on solution but never to re-visit to determine if solution was implemented or if effective Serial problem solving without decisions – problem admiration Many solutions…limited implementation

Main Ideas Data help us ask the right questions…they do not provide the answers: Use data to –Identify problems –Refine problems –Define the questions that lead to solutions Data help place the problem in the context rather than in the students.

Improving Decision-Making Information for Problem Solving Problem From: To: Solution Problem Solution

Main Ideas Build decision systems not data systems Use data in decision layers –Is there a problem? (overall rate of ODR) –Localize the problem –(location, problem behavior, students, time of day) –Get specific Dont drown in the data Its OK to be doing well Be efficient

TIPS: Team Initiated Problem Solving 1.Determine if a problem exists. 2.Develop and refine hypothesis 3.Discuss and select solutions 4.Develop and implement an action plan/set of tasks addressing problem(s) 5.Evaluate and revise

Collect and Use and UseData Review Status and Identify Problems Develop and Refine Hypotheses Discuss and Select Solutions Develop and Implement Action Plan Evaluate and Revise Action Plan Team Initiated Problem Solving (TIPS) Model

Identifying problems/issues What data to monitor –ODR per day per month –OSS, ISS, Attendance, Teacher report –Team Checklist/ SET (are we doing what we planned to do?) What question to answer –Do we have a problem? What questions to ask of Level, Trend, Peaks –How do our data compare with last year? –How do our data compare with national/regional norms? –How do our data compare with our preferred/expected status? If a problem is identified, then ask –What are the data we need to make a good decision?

Interpreting Office Referral Data: Is there a problem? Absolute level (depending on size of school) –High Schools (1/147) –Middle Schools (1/200) –Elementary Schools (1/454) –K-(8-12) (1/238) Trends –Peaks before breaks? –Gradual increasing trend across year?

Using Data to Refine Problem Statements The statement of a problem is important for team-based problem solving. Everyone must be working on the same problem with the same assumptions. Problems often are framed in a Primary form, that creates concern, but that is not useful for problem-solving. Frame primary problems based on initial review of data Use more detailed review of data to build Solvable Problem Statements.

General versus Precision Statements General Statements –Too many referrals Precision Statements –There were an average of 8 ODRs/day/month for month of September –Gang behavior is increasing –September has more suspensions than last year –The cafeteria is out of control –Gang behavior has steadily increased at least 3 incidences for the last three months –There were 6 suspensions in September which was 3 more than last September –Problem behavior occurs most frequently in the cafeteria and accounts for 50 % of all office referrals

WHICH STATEMENT IS MORE PRECISE????

Precise or Primary Statement? Children are using inappropriate language with a high frequency in the presence of both adults and other children. This is creating a sense of disrespect and incivility in the school James D. is hitting others in the cafeteria during lunch, and his hitting is maintained by peer attention.

Precise or Primary Statement? ODRs during December are higher than in any other month. Minor disrespect and disruption are increasing over time, and are most likely during the last 15 minutes of our block periods when students are engaged in independent seat work. This pattern is most common in 7 th and 8 th grades, involves many students, and appears to be maintained by escape from work (but may also be maintained by peer attention… we are not sure).

Precise or Primary Statement? Three 5 th grade boys are name calling and touching girls inappropriately during recess in an apparent attempt to obtain attention. Boys are engaging in sexual harassment

This is creating a sense of disrespect and incivility in the school. 2. James D. is hitting others in the cafeteria during lunch. 3 ODRs have leveled off; however, they remain above the national average. Girls are receiving more ODRs than boys, and these are occurring most frequently in the hallways. 4. ODRs during December are higher than in any other month. 5. Minor disrespect and disruption are increasing over time. This pattern is most common in 7th and 8th grades and involves many students. 6. Ninth graders are the worst behaved in the school. 7. Three 5th grade boys are name calling and touching girls inappropriately during recess. 8. Fighting occurred 12 times during October. These occurred around 9:30, 11:45, 12:30, and 2:15 which are our transition times.. 9. Average ODRs per month have increased to 11. They occur throughout the day in all locations. The problem behavior occurring most frequently is disrespect; however, several other problem behaviors are occurring. 10. Boys are engaging in sexual harassment.

1. Get out your Precise Statements Worksheet. With your spoon partner, identify each statement as a general or precise problem statement. Decide if the statement answers each of the following: Who? What? Where? and When? If it does not what information do you need and where will you get that information. 2. Next, change each general statement to a precise statement, noting what was missing.

Why Are Problem Behaviors sustaining?

Hypotheses = WHY IN WORDS SUCH AS… ~ We believe ~ We think ~ Because, etc.

Example Hypothesis Statement There are more ODRs for aggression on the playground than last year. These are most likely to occur during first recess, with a large number of students.and the aggression is related to getting access to the new playground equipment.

High school freshman have more office discipline referrals (ODRs) than sophomores, juniors, and seniors collectively. ODRs occur most frequently due to tardiness upon arrival to school and during class transitions. We believe this is because there is limited staff visible during transitions, staff that are visible are not reminding/prompting students to move on to next class, nor are they acknowledging students for getting to class on time at a rate that students need/are responding to. Example Hypothesis Statements

ODRs occur most frequently on the buses, both in the morning and afternoon, and are mostly for inappropriate language. ODRs are occurring in all buses. Twenty five different students have received at least one ODR while on the bus during August and September. We believe this is because there is little involvement of the bus drivers in the schools SWPBS efforts. Example Hypothesis Statements

For the third year in a row office referrals are highest in December and above the national average. Over 150 students (45% of the school) have at least one ODR. ODRs are occurring in both classroom and non-classroom settings and across the school day, and disruption is the most common problem behavior. We believe this is due to students AND staff becoming both anxious and excited about Christmas break. In addition, it could be that staff are less focused on implementing their primary preventions practices. Example Hypothesis Statements

Example: Where should we go to lunch? Your group brainstorms and comes up with 4 options of where we could go to lunch. Burger KingBurger King ArbysArbys McAlistersMcAlisters Pizza HutPizza Hut Now each team member will individually assign each option a number of 1 thru 4, with 4 being his/her top option.

Example: Where should we go to lunch? One member of the team collects all the numbers given to each place. The option with the highest total score is the place we will all go to eat. OptionsTeam Member 1 Team Member 2 Team Member 3 Total A. Burger King34310 B. Arbys2349 C. McAlisters4127 D. Pizza Hut1214

First: Assign each potential solution a letter of the alphabet. For example, one team generated four solutions. They assigned each solution a letter of the alphabet as follows: A. Increase staff supervision A. Increase staff supervision B. Re-teach school rules in hallway B. Re-teach school rules in hallway C. Get students to create rules posters C. Get students to create rules posters D. Create directional signs for traffic flow D. Create directional signs for traffic flow

The solution believed to be MOST important to address, right now, given the considerations, is assigned the greatest number. The solution you believe is LEAST important to address right now is assigned the value of 1. Second, Each team member assigns a priority value to each solution, rank ordering the solutions from most to least important. The rank ordering, HOWEVER, occurs in a specific manner and is described as follows: 1 st 2 nd

The solution believed to be NEXT MOST important to address is assigned the value of the total number of identified behavior problems minus 1. The solution you believe is NEXT LEAST important to address right now is assigned the value of 2. Second, Each team member assigns a priority value to each solution, rank ordering the solutions from most to least important. The rank ordering, HOWEVER, occurs in a specific manner and is described as follows: 3 rd 4 th

The behavior believed to be the third most important to address (if there are five or more) is assigned the value of the total number of identified behavior problems minus 2. Continue on this pattern until all options are assigned a value. Second, Each team member assigns a priority value to each solution, rank ordering the solutions from most to least important. The rank ordering, HOWEVER, occurs in a specific manner and is described as follows: 5 th Etc.

Third, EACH teachers value is added to obtain a total sum value for each solution identified, thereby creating a rank order prioritization list. In the example provided: BehaviorTeacher 1 Assigned value Teacher 2 assigned value Teacher 3 assigned value Teacher 4 assigned value Total assigned value A. Increase supervision 244313 B. Re-teach 423211 C. Student Posters 332412 D. Signs 11114

Thus, team members rank ordered the solutions as follows: Most important: increase supervision (13) Next most important: students create rules posters (12) Next most important: re-teach (11) Least important: directional signs (4)

Fourth, team members are asked if there is a consensus of this weighted outcome. If not, discuss, and weight again until consensus is obtained. 5 4 3 2 1 0 I am all for this idea. I can be a leader Im for the idea. I can provide support. Im not sure but Im willing to accept the groups opinion. Im not sure. I need more discussion. I cant support it at this time. I need more information. No. I need an alternative I can support.

Delphi Weighting In your same groups, with your list generated during your Brainstorming Activity, use the Delphi Weighting procedure to pick your top three ideas.

Using Data to Build Solutions Prevention: How can we avoid the problem context? –Who, When, Where –Schedule change, curriculum change, etc Teaching: How can we define, teach, and monitor what we want? –Teach appropriate behavior –Use problem behavior as negative example Recognition: How can we build in systematic reward for desired behavior? Extinction: How can we prevent problem behavior from being rewarded? Consequences: What are efficient, consistent consequences for problem behavior? How will we collect and use data to evaluate (a) implementation fidelity, and (b) impact on student outcomes?

Problem Statement Preliminary: –There is an increase in office discipline referrals from Sept to Jan, and the increase is resulting in more referrals than we consider acceptable, and more than is typical of national norms. Precise: –Inappropriate language, harassment, disrespect and defiance toward staff is occurring in the cafeteria, before, during and after lunch. WHY: Many students and we are unclear what is maintaining these behaviors. –We believe over-crowding may be a factor, and we did not teach school-wide expectations in cafeteria.

The SET is conducted by an outside coach or consultant. The head administrator, at least 15 staff members and 15 students are randomly chosen to be interviewed. The SET assesses how well SWPBS Tier 1/primary preventions are being implemented in a building and allows teams to measure progress from year to year. Teams use SET results to revise annual action plans.

Schools must continually assess how effective Tier 1/primary preventions are being implemented. Tier 1/Primary preventions are considered in place when schools achieve an 80/80 criteria on the SET. Attaining 80/80 criteria is also associated with a decrease in problem behavior. At the beginning of implementation for baseline data, and thereafter on an annual basis in October.

The SET is a combination of direct observations and interviews conducted by the district coach or outside consultant. As a result, a school receives a score, chart, and SET report containing the outcomes of the SET with subsequent recommendations. Commendations, hypotheses, and recommendations should be shared with all faculty and staff. Recommendations are addressed throughout the year.

Locate your SET Features Chart.

Locate your SET Features Chart and features thumbnails. When we tell you to move, please take this and a writing utensil with you. PLATE Find your PLATE partner. Mark the statements on each feature slide in your thumbnails with + if you think it is present and measureable in your school and - if it is not present or measureable. On the SET Features Chart write down what you need to do in your school to score well on the SET. Be prepared to share.

Return to your school team and discuss what evidence you need and compare what each of you generated.

Expectations Defined All faculty and staff have had input and agreed upon 3-5 school-wide rules All faculty and staff have had input and agreed upon the behavioral expectations that define those rules The rules AND expectations are posted all over the school The rules AND expectations are posted in formats that ALL students can read e.g., pictures, symbols, words, etc.

All students can recite the rules and expectations. All adults can recite the rules and expectations. There is a SYSTEM/plan for teaching ALL students the behavioral expectations. The system/plan is codified in teacher handbooks or other source. All faculty and staff are involved in some way in teaching the behavioral expectations. The primary team reviews pertinent information with the full faculty and staff at the beginning of the year. All new faculty and staff are taught the discipline system. Behavioral Expectations Taught

System for Rewarding/Acknowledging Behavioral Expectations There is a SYSTEM/plan for rewarding student BEHAVIOR. The system/plan is codified in teacher and student handbooks or other source. Students receive rewards. ADULTS in the building give out rewards.

System for Responding to Behavioral Violations There is a SYSTEM/plan for responding to rule violations. The system/plan is codified in teacher and student handbooks or other source. Adults agree with administration on what is office managed and what is staff managed. There is a documented crisis plan. Adults agree with administration on how to respond to extreme emergencies.

Monitoring and Decision Making School uses a discipline referral form that includes: student, grade, date, time, referring staff, problem behavior, location, persons involved, probable motivation, &administrative decision School uses a clearly defined system for collecting and summarizing discipline referrals. Administration explains how that system works. Team shares data from discipline system (above) with all faculty and staff at least 3 times per year. Team uses discipline data to make decisions about school-wide issues.

Management School improvement plan includes school-wide discipline as one of top three goals. All adults are aware of the primary preventions team and its functions. The primary preventions team includes representation of the entire school. The primary preventions team has at least one team leader that is accepted by all team members. The administrator is an ACTIVE member of the primary preventions team. The team meets at least monthly. The team reports progress of primary system to entire staff at least three times per year. The primary team has an action plan that guides their work that is less than one year old.

District Level Support School budget contains allocation to support and sustain SWPBS, at all three tiers. The administration identifies an out of school liaison who supports the team and school in implementing SWPBS.

Making Effective, Data-Based Decisions from SET Results 1. Coach reviews status and defines problems with precision 2. Coach uses accurate and current data to identify and refine problem statements 3. The team should understand how scores and recommendations were determined and have choices of recommendations. 4. Use annual SET data as a source of accountability for evaluating the implementation and impact of the SET recommendations selected.

Precision Problem Statements (What data do we need to make effective decisions based on SET results?) – What feature(s) is/are less than 80% in place? – What practice(s) was/were least evident within each feature? – Who is responsible for putting the practice(s) into place? For ensuring the practice(s) are accurately implemented? – Where were the practices most likely and least likely to be evident. – When were the practices most likely and least likely to occur.

Example Recommendations: Although 100% of staff stated that they had given Hawk Wings" to students for following the school-wide rules this year, only 33% (5/15) of students reported they had actually received one. Consider one or more of the following actions: 1. All faculty and staff increase the rates and frequencies with which Hawk wings are given out to students. 2. Ensure that students who routinely follow rules receive Hawk wings", not just students who frequently break the rules. 3. Codify your incentive system 4. Ensure all faculty and staff have access to Hawk Wings and know how to secure more when needed.

1. Get out your SET report. 2. Review your recommendations. 3. Prioritize recommendations using Delphi Weighting, checkmark method or Focusing Four. 4. Generate Tasks. Include (a) WHO will complete, (b) WHEN action/task will be completed, and (c) DATA documenting evidence of task completion. 5. Record these on your team task list. 6. Complete the SET portion of the Planning Organizer Share

Data Analyst Function/Role 1.Understand how the report was scored. Ask questions for the team in preparation for team member questions. 2.Understand the origins and content of the recommendations. Ask the coach for clarification in preparation for team member questions. 3.Facilitate prioritizing recommendations for the year.

The SSS is completed by ALL faculty and staff and 4 students from each homeroom/class in grades 4 and above. The School Safety Survey is a web-based instrument developed to obtain an efficient index of perceived school safety and to generate actions creating safe/safer schools.

The SSS is a web-based survey completed by individuals. Students in upper grades can complete the survey by filling in responses like the adults. Students in lower grades will take a different version of the survey that provides more extensive explanation of questions. Annually in March/April

This survey provides a summary of "risk factors" and response plans" that can be useful in determining training and support needs related to school safety and violence prevention. The primary preventions team should review the risk factors and corresponding responses and generate tasks accordingly.

Get out your School Safety Survey From Survey Monkey.Com Spend three minutes reviewing the survey and generating questions/potential questions from your faculty, staff, or students. ???????

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Respondents Role Table: 1. What percentage of the adults completed the safety survey? The goal is for all adults in the school to complete and return the survey. ______% 89 In this example, there are 55 adults working in the school. The first thing to look at when reviewing the safety survey results is the number of adults and students who gave feedback.

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Respondents Role Table: 2. How many students per certified teacher/homeroom teacher completed the survey? The goal is that 4 students per homeroom teacher will complete and return the survey. ________ students and ________% of students suggested (# of students/ (# of homeroom teachers x 4)) 103 86 In this example, there are 30 homeroom teachers. The first thing to look at when reviewing the safety survey results is the number of adults and students who gave feedback.

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Risk Factors 1.Summarize Combined Data and Look for Differences between Adults & Students What percent of adults and students thought risk factors were moderately to extensively present? ______% of adults and ______% of students What percent of adults and students thought risk factors were not at all to minimally present? ______% of adults and ______% of students What percent of adults and students did not know if risk factors were prevalent in their school? ______% of adults and ______% of students 35.6 20.1 58.059.9 8.7 20.0

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Risk Factors 2.Determine the General Trend For risk factors, recognize that you are looking for both adult and student bars to be higher on the not at all and minimally end and lower on the moderately and extensively end. Ignore the dont know responses for this trend. What is the general trend for your schools responses? The general trend is in the correct direction, with there being fewest extensively responses. However, our goal should be to increase not at all responses.

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Review of Individual Risk Factors 1. Always start by looking at the positives (what is going well) If the green lines or not at all to minimally data are above the 80% goal line, indicated in blue, the risk factor appears to be under control to the adults or students. Which risk factors are not prevalent? According to whom? (1) Illegal Weapons – both students and adults (2) Child Abuse – adults only (3) Gang Activity – adults (student response at 73%)

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Review of Individual Risk Factors 2. Next, pay close attention to the red lines or extensively data. These are the areas that need to be addressed by the primary team making recommendations for action school-wide. Pay particular attention to item #16 Bullying Which risk factors were prevalent? According to whom? (1) Poor School Condition – adults (2) Truancy – adults (3) Bullying – both

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Review of Individual Risk Factors 2. (continued) What are some possible actions? (1)Poor School Condition – repaint, use detentions for clean up (2) Truancy – increase incentives for being on time, involve parents (3) Bullying – inservice on responding to bullying, incorporate anti-bullying into expectations matrix

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Review of Individual Risk Factors 3. Are differences seen between adult and student perceptions? This may be a sign that adults in the school are not present in situations where the risk factor is seen the most. Which risk factors are perceived by students to be more prevalent than by adults? Fights, conflicts, and assaults – small difference, is this difference significant to my school?

1. 89% of the adults and 86% of the students responded to the SSS. 2. 35.6% of the adults and 20.1% of students thought the risk factors were moderately to extensively present. 58% of the adults and 59.9% of the students thought the risk factors were not at all to minimally present. 8.7% of the adults and 20% of the students did not know if risk factors were prevalent in their schools. 3. In general the trend for risk factors is going in the expected direction, however, there is a need for an increased percentage of students and adults reporting that risk factors are not at all or minimally present. 4. Risk factors least prevalent reported by both students and adults were illegal weapons. Gang activity was next least prevent reported by the adults and students. Adults reported child abuse to be least prevalent. 5. Risk factors most prevalent were poor school conditions and truancy reported by adults and bullying reported by both adults and students; however, fights and assaults were reported slightly more prevalent by the students than by the adults. Potential solutions: SSS Precision Statements – Risk Factors

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Response Plans 2.Determine the General Trend For response plans, recognize that you are looking for both adult and student bars to be higher on the moderately and extensively end and lower on the not at all and minimally end. Ignore the dont know responses for this trend. What is the general trend for your schools responses? The general trend is in the correct direction, with there being fewest not at all responses. However, our goal should be to increase extensively responses.

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Review of Individual Response Plans 1. Always start by looking at the positives (what is going well) If the green lines or moderately to extensively data are above the 80% goal line, indicated in blue, the response plans appears to be well recognized by the adults or students. Which response plans are prevalent? According to whom? (1)Extracurricular Activities – both students and adults (2)Effective student-teacher relationships – adults (3) Positive School Climate – adults

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Review of Individual Response Plans 2. Next, pay close attention to the red lines or not at all data. These are the areas that need to be addressed by the primary team making recommendations for action school-wide. Which response plans were not recognized? According to whom? (1)Suicide Prevention – students(2) Involved Parents – students (3) Effective Student-Teacher Relationships – students

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Review of Individual Response Plans 2. (continued) What are some possible actions? (1)Suicide Prevention – post crisis hotline phone numbers in student areas (2) Involved Parents – create role of parent liaison to consult on ways to get parents involved, host an event involving food and child care to get parents input or advice (3) Effective Student-Teacher Relationships – increase positive to negative ratio, implement 2x10 for teachers and students without a good relationship

School Safety Survey Interpretation: Review of Individual Response Plans 3. Are differences seen between adult and student perceptions? This may be a sign that adults in the school are not aware of student perceptions. Which response plans are less recognized by students than by adults? Effective Student-Teacher Relationships – why does that faculty think they have good relationships but the students think the relationships are not as effective?

The Self-Assessment is completed by ALL faculty and staff with in your building. The Self-Assessment survey will help determine what the staff perceive to be already in place and what the staff believe to be a priority. At the beginning of implementation for baseline data, and thereafter on an annual basis in April.

Use the Self-Assessment as one tool for evidence of buy-in by faculty and staff. Eighty percent of faculty and staff must see the goals as measured by the Self Assessment as a high or medium priority to pursue SWPBS efforts, efficiently. If staff buy in is NOT 80%, then pursue the buy in activities listed on the Getting Started Flow Chart. (Available at edprodevelopment.com)

Self-Assessment: When starting the SWPBS journey... Do we have buy-in?? School-wideNon-classroomClassroom Individual With the combined percentages of high and medium improvement priority near or above 80% for all 4 systems, this school does have staff buy-in. 82% 79% 86%

In year 2 of implementation and beyond, the Self-Assessment helps to prioritize goals in the 7 features across the 4 systems: School-wideSchool-wide ClassroomClassroom Non-classroomNon-classroom IndividualIndividual Both staff perception & attainability are factored into prioritization. factored into prioritization.

The Self-Assessment is an online survey. Staff members enter their answers into a school account on PBSsurveys.org, and the data is summarized for you! The data are used to create the teams action plan for the school year.
