    3. Why PBS? Initial Concerns Not just another program please! Isn’t PBS just like Character Education? Flavor of the month. This, too, will pass!

    4. Why Not PBS? We will never become successful if we work on one student at a time PBS helps us focus on systems change PBS is prevention rather than reaction (crisis management)

    5. By The Way, Any behavior management seminar that offers “sure-fire” or “quick-fix” strategies should be filed under “fiction”.

    6. BOTTOM LINE PBS is primarily about changing the interactions we have with students. It is not about changing the students. PBS is about providing supports to adults so that they positively engage with students. When adults in our school feel positive and supported, magic happens!!
