The PaPBS Network recognition system annually identifies and publicly distinguishes Pennsylvania’s Program Wide (PW) and School Wide (SW) sites for successful implementation of PBIS. This year has presented unprecedented challenges in education. Yet, our schools and early childhood programs have been steadfast in their support to all children to meet their academic, behavioral, and social/emotional needs, and remain committed to high fidelity implementation. Each fall, PBIS sites across the commonwealth submit an application in order to be considered for recognition, based on the following criteria: • In good standing of the PaPBS Network, • Supported by a PaPBS Network Facilitator, and • Submitted 2018-2019 annual data as required by the PaPBS Network program evaluator. There are four categories of recognition for which schools and programs can apply. The following requirements are based on the type of recognition sought by the applicant: Universal (Tier 1) Initial Implementation With Fidelity Fidelity of implementation criteria includes: • A score of 70 percent or above on the Benchmarks of Quality (BoQ),* • Submitted 2018-2019 annual data as required by the PaPBS Network, and • A score of 80/80 or above on the Preschool-Wide Evaluation Tool (PreSET)** or a 70 on the Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI)***. Universal (Tier 1) Sustained Implementation With Fidelity For PW and SW sites that have been recognized for implementation fidelity the previous school year and have applied to be recognized for continued fidelity of implementation at the Universal (Tier 1) level. Fidelity of implementation criteria includes: • Recognized for implementation fidelity during 2018-2019 school year, • Submitted 2018-2019 annual data as required by the PaPBS Network, and • Earned a score of 70 percent or above for Tier 1 on the Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI)*** and a Tier 1 walk-through tool was completed by their PaPBS Facilitator. Continued . 3 Universal (Tier 1) and Targeted (Tier 2) Implementation With Fidelity For PW and SW sites that have been previously recognized for Implementation of Universal (Tier 1) level with fidelity and have applied to be recognized for continued implementation with fidelity at the Universal (Tier 1) level and also Targeted (Tier 2) level. Fidelity of program implementation criteria includes: • Recognized during the 2018-2019 school year for fidelity of program implementation at Tier 1 or Tier 1-Sustaining, • Earned a score of 80 percent or above on the BoQ for the 2018-2019 school year, or a 70 percent above on the Tier 1 TFI, • Submitted 2018-2019 annual data as required by the program evaluator, and • Earned a score of 70 percent or above for Tier 1 and Tier 2 of the Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI) and a Tier 1 walk-through tool was completed by their PaPBS Facilitator. Implementation Fidelity at Tiers 1, 2, and 3 This is for PW and SW sites that have been previously recognized for implementa- tion of Universal (Tier 1) level with fidelity and have applied to be recognized for continued implementation fidelity at the Universal (Tier 1) level, Targeted (Tier 2) level, and the Intensive (Tier 3) level. Fidelity of program implementation criteria includes: • Recognized during the 2018-2019 school year for Tier 1 or Tier 1-Sustaining, • Earned a score of 80 percent or above on the BoQ for the 2018-2019 school year, or a 70 percent or above on the Tier 1 TFI, • Submitted 2018-2019 annual data as required by the PaPBS Network, and • Earned a score of 70 percent or above on Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 of the Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI) and a Tier 1 walk-through tool was com- pleted by their PaPBS Facilitator. Fidelity Measures: * Benchmarks of Quality The Benchmarks of Quality (BoQ) are used by teams to evaluate the status of program wide and school wide PBIS supports. The BoQ provides a way to assess and identify areas of strength and need for establishing future action plans for sustained implementation. Continued . 4 ** Preschool-Wide Evaluation Tool (PreSET) This assessment is used to measure program-wide implementation of the universal level of positive behavior interventions and support (PBIS) in early childhood settings. *** SWPBIS Tiered Fidelity Inventory The SWPBIS Tiered Fidelity Inventory (SWPBIS TFI) is a fidelity measure to determine the extent to which programs and school staff are applying the core features of school wide PBIS in all three tiers. The SWPBIS TFI can be used over time to guide both implementation efforts and sustained use of program wide and school wide behavioral interventions and supports. 5 Schools and Programs That Earned Universal (Tier1) Initial Implementation With Fidelity Western Region Millcreek Township School District Walnut Creek Middle School ACLD Tillotson School ACLD Tillotson Mohawk Area School District Mohawk Elementary School Allegheny-Clarion Valley School District Mohawk Junior High School Allegheny-Clarion Valley Junior-Senior Mohawk Senior High School High School Penncrest School District Ambridge Area School District Saegertown Junior Senior High School Economy Elementary School State Street Elementary School Pittsburgh School District Baldwin-Whitehall School District Allegheny Traditional Academy 6-8 Whitehall Elementary School Carrick High School Pittsburgh Allegheny Traditional Connellsville Area School District Academy K-5 Bullskin Elementary School Pittsburgh Arsenal 6-8 West Crawford Elementary School Pittsburgh Arsenal PreK-5 Elizabeth Forward School District Pittsburgh Brookline PreK-8 Central Elementary School Pittsburgh Dilworth PK-5th Grade Pittsburgh Gifted Center Erie Public Schools Pittsburgh Greenfield K-8 Diehl Elementary School Pittsburgh Miller K-5 African-Centered McKinley Elementary School Academy Freedom Area School District Pittsburgh Schiller STEAM Academy Freedom Area Elementary School Pittsburgh Sterrett Pittsburgh Sunnyside PreK-8 Grove City Area School District Pittsburgh Westwood Elementary Hillview Intermediate Center Pittsburgh-Mt Oliver Intermediate Unit Highlands School District Provident Charter School Highlands Middle School Reynolds School District Intermediate Unit One Reynolds Elementary School Intermediate Unit #1 Educational Campus at Waynesburg Rochester Area School District Rochester Area Elementary School Jefferson-Clarion Head Start Inc.

    Annual Public Notice of Special Education Services and Programs

    Annual Public Notice of Special Education & Early Intervention Services and Programs It is the responsibility of the Pennsylvania Department of Education to ensure that all children with disabilities residing in the Commonwealth, regardless of the severity of their disability, and who are in need of special education and related services, are identified, located, and evaluated. This responsibility is required by a federal law called the Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The IDEA requires each state educational agency to publish a notice to parents in newspapers or other media before any major identification, location or evaluation activity. The IDEA requires this notice to contain certain information. Pennsylvania law requires each school district to fulfill this notice requirement by providing an annual public notice. The school district is required by the IDEA to provide a free appropriate public education to children with disabilities who need special education and related services. Pennsylvania has adopted state laws which conform with the IDEA and which school districts must follow. In Pennsylvania a school age child with disabilities who needs special education and related services is identified as a child with a disability. Students are exceptional if they need specially designed instruction and have one or more of the following physical or mental disabilities: Autism/Pervasive Development Disorder Orthopedic Impairment Deaf-Blindness Other Health Impairment Deafness Specific Learning Disability Emotional Disturbance Speech or Language Impairment Hearing Impairment Traumatic Brain Injury Intellectual Disabilities Visual Impairment Including Blindness Multiple Disabilities In Pennsylvania, students also qualify as exceptional if they require specially designed instruction and are determined to be mentally gifted.

Kirk, Clinical Associate Professor, Teaching, Leading, and Learning ii Copyright © by Jamie Lusebrink 2021 iii Abstract Evaluating a School-Wide Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports Program for System Improvement Jamie Lusebrink, EdD University of Pittsburgh, 2021 The place of inquiry implemented a School-Wide Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (SWPBIS) plan in 2016 with the goal of building a positive organizational climate while reducing the number of discipline infractions and office referrals. Although interventions and supports have been in place since the original implementation of the SWPBIS programming, suspensions and office referrals continue to occur at an alarming rate, particularly in third through fifth grades. These suspensions were creating gaps in learning for students due to the loss of instructional time without effectively addressing the behaviors to reduce further occurrences. This mixed methods study evaluated the current School-Wide Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (SWPBIS) programming and implementation at the building of inquiry against best practices based on a state-wide model of SWPBIS with the purpose to make recommendations for improvement.

    DANIEL STURGEON, A STUDY IN OBSCURITY GEORGE ROADMAN1 nrfjxB Constitution of the United States has provided for only two JL senators from each state, a factor which ought to attract more than the average amount of public attention for those who have made the grade. A state as large and politically important as Pennsylvania should be able, by virtue of this fact alone, to list its representatives in the up- per house by name as well as by accomplishment. Such, however, is not the case, for in the long listof senators who served inthe nineteenth century, few attained any degree of national prominence and then only as a President, political boss, or member of a Presidential cabinet. The reasons for the well-known and lamentable obscurity of Penn- sylvania senators are many and varied, and are quite often explainable only as a result of rather complete studies of the lives of those involved. One of these unknowns, Daniel Sturgeon of Uniontown, is worth con- sidering because he combined the factors of long service in state and national public life with an almost total obscurity as far as the pages of history are concerned. 2 From 1818 to 1858, Sturgeon pursued a politi- cal career that began with his election to the state house of representa- tives, took him to the state senate in 1826, made him speaker of the senate in 1828, saw him appointed auditor general under Governor George Wolf in 1830, elected him state treasurer in 1836, and finally carried him into the United States Senate where he remained from 1840 to 1851, his length of service being unsurpassed by a Pennsylva- nian until Don Cameron's twenty years of service from 1877 to 1897.

    SCHOOL SEGREGATION IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY PENNSYLVANIA BY EDWARD J. PRICE, JR. 7HE Pennsylvania Abolition Act of 1780 provided for the gradual Xabolition of slavery as well as the elimination of discriminatory laws, but it did not provide the black citizens of the commonwealth with equality. The general acceptance by whites of the concept of black inferiority and the fear of racial amalgamation or misce- genation led to segregation and discrimination in the social, political, and economic spheres of life. Blacks did not quietly accept these conditions. ' They labored to improve their status by es- tablishing various self-help organizations. Many considered educa- tional activities to. be the most important part of the self-help program since they saw education as a panacea for the problems facing the race. Blacks have traditionally viewed education as a means of im- proving their condition in society. Their great faith in education was manifested in various ways. Leading black men established schools, formed literary societies, and urged others to take advantage of these institutions. Even though groups of philanthropic whites such as the Quakers established schools for the basic education of blacks, groups such as the African Methodist Episcopal Church also founded schools. Members of the black intelligentsia joined together to form literary societies which provided libraries and a forum for the ex- change of ideas on topics of interest. During the ante-bellum period nine of these organizations were established in Philadelphia, and the black community in Pittsburgh supported two literary societies. Furthermore, state and national conventions of black men, which were held frequently prior to 1860, urged black people to improve The author received his Ph.D.
