Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS/PBIS)

The School Board’s primary goal is to educate, not discipline; however, when the behavior of the individual student disrupts the safe, orderly process of education or comes in conflict with the rights of others, corrective actions become necessary for the benefit of the individual and the school as a whole. The School Board shall address student behavior with a focus on evidence-based interventions prioritizing classroom and school-based support in lieu of out-of-school disciplinary removals allowing schools to address misconduct while minimizing the loss of instructional time. The School Board shall establish regulations ensuring that disciplinary measures within schools are administered uniformly, consistently and in a nondiscriminatory manner.
