The outcomes may also include various ways of analyzing school-wide behavioral data as outlined in the School-wide Behavioral Data Guide (e.g., referrals/suspensions by grade level, location, problem behavior, time of day, student, class, etc.). Workman will be using the data generated in SWIS to monitor our behavior plan. We would like the PBS team to look at data in a variety of ways. The team will analyze date by grade level, location, and time. Our new attendance clerk will be monitoring student absences and working with a child study attendance team to increase our average daily attendance. </p><p>Page 2 of 11 The School District of Escambia County SCHOOL-WIDE BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT PLAN</p><p>SCHOOL-WIDE BEHAVIORAL GOALS</p><p>1. Out-of-school suspension Workman's PBS team would like to decrease our out of school suspensions by at least 5%. We will use the data in SWIS to analyze what months typically generate a lot of out-of-school suspensions. Our behavior plan incorporates a more progressive-step approach to consequences. Students will have a variety of consequences befor e they are suspended out of school.</p><p>2. Attendance PBS will be working with our guidance department and attendance clerks to increase our average daily attendance rate. Students will be referred to a child study attendance according to what is outlined in the student R&R book.</p><p>3. Bullying Workman will continue it's "Bully Busters" club. Our guidance department will continue to incorporate anti- bullying messages on CCTV, working with our multi-media class and our broadcast production class. Teachers will be trained on their role in preventing bullying through faculty meetings. </p><p>4. Office Discipline Referrals Workman's PBS team would like to decrease the number of ODR by at least 1% this year. We will emphasize classroom management with all faculty and staff members. We plan to use some of the many resources now available through the staff development office, such as PD 360. Each teacher will be responsible for contacting parents and following a step by step guide before writing referrals for "minor" infractions. </p><p>5. Other ISS Workman should have an increase in the number of students assigned to ISS. This year we have a teaching unit dedicated to ISS only and we plan on making ISS an integral part of the consequences offered in our behavior management plan. </p><p>6. Other</p><p>Page 3 of 11 The School District of Escambia County SCHOOL-WIDE BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT PLAN</p><p>PROGRESS MONITORING</p><p>Your school-wide behavior team should meet to review data and discuss concerns or revisions to your school-wide behavior management plan once a month and complete progress monitoring forms quarterly.

The PBS team will meet the third Wednesday of each month at 8:00 a.m. in our media center. </p><p>Describe the procedures that your school will use to collect, summarize, and analyze the behavioral data prior to team meetings. Procedures are required for entering the information into the database, summarizing the data, and developing graphs using the School-wide Behavioral Data Guide. Our PBS data team will pull the data prior to our monthly meetings for analysis. This team consists of Mrs. Ursrey, Mr. Tinney, Mrs. Buffington, Mr. Hieb, and Mr. Riggs. At our September meeting we will decide which data team member is responsible for pulling the data and how we will disseminate the information before each monthly meeting. </p><p>How will your school document the school-wide behavior team meetings? We will provide a monthly sign in sheet and agenda. Also, we will have one team member record notes each month. </p><p>Describe how your school-wide behavior team will share the data and outcomes with your faculty, staff, and other stakeholders?

Each teacher incorporates the IB learner profiles and the expecations that go with them into each unit plan that is taught. </p><p>How often will you plan to provide refresher training on expectations and rules to staff and students in your school? How will you orient and teach new students who arrive mid-year? Our language arts classes are using the IB MYP guidebook throughout the school year. This book is an indepth look at each learner profile and the behaviors associated with the word. Our new students will be given this book in the language arts class upon entry. The language arts teacher will work with that student to make sure he has knowledge of the learner profiles and our school wide expectations for behavior.</p><p>Page 6 of 11 The School District of Escambia County SCHOOL-WIDE BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT PLAN</p><p>REWARD/RECOGNITION PROGRAM</p><p>What type of reward system will you use?

Finally, we will have an end of year celebration for each grade level. All students who have shown good behavior through out the school year will be invited to attend. </p><p>Describe the behaviors for which you will reward or recognize students. 1. No referrals ( per 9 weeks) 2. No absences ( per 9 weeks) 3. Improvement in attendance 4. Improvement in behavior 5.
