In this episode, we explore the topic of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) and how it transformed Marion Cross School classrooms and student behavior. Our guest speakers, Greg Bagnato, MCS Coordinator of Student Support Services, and Katie Cormier, MCS Guidance Counselor, explain what PBIS is, how it works, and the benefits of implementing PBIS in schools.

We start by discussing the basic principles of PBIS, including defining expected behavior, teaching behavior explicitly, and reinforcing positive behavior. We then dive deeper into how schools can use PBIS to create a positive and supportive school culture, reduce discipline referrals, and improve academic outcomes for all students.

Our guests share some real-life examples of how PBIS has been successfully implemented at Marion Cross School, and provides tips and strategies for educators who are interested in incorporating PBIS into their own teaching practice.

Whether you're a teacher, administrator, or parent, this episode will provide you with valuable insights into the power of PBIS and how it can transform the learning environment for all students. Tune in and join the conversation!

Shout out to Jonathan Dean, 2nd grade teacher, for the opening music.
