To create safer, more caring learning environments, Rush-Henrietta has implemented Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports, more commonly known as PBIS.  As part of the program, we have established rules for appropriate behavior.  We’re teaching these expectations to students and rewarding them when they respond appropriately. PBIS works by identifying, monitoring, teaching, and reinforcing these districtwide expectations:

• Be responsible
• Be respectful
• Be trustworthy
• Be caring
• Be ready to learn

Below you will find a copy of our matrix which outlines the expectations.  You will also find examples of the star cards used in school to reward students for meeting these expectations.
