PBIS

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based, data-driven framework proven to reduce disciplinary incidents, increase a school’s sense of safety and support improved academic outcomes. More than 16,000 U.S. schools are implementing PBIS. The premise of PBIS is that continual teaching, combined with acknowledgement or feedback of positive student behavior will reduce unnecessary discipline and promote a climate of greater productivity, safety and learning.

All Barrow County Schools participate in PBIS.

Class dojo

Holsenbeck Elementary School will be using an app called Class Dojo for our Positive Behavior Intervention and Support (PBIS) program. All teachers will use this tool to work on behavior skills, reward students' hard work, and provide you with more communication about how your child is doing. We will continue to use Remind for text communication. Please view the information video below for more information.
