  2. The word of the day is

  3. Background info. • 3/16/15—Staff Survey Re. PBIS @ SHS • 20+ Teachers volunteered to pilot the Discipline Referral Form and a committee was born! • Meetings were held on 4/14, 4/20 and 5/12. • Many topics were discussed and concerns shared. • We looked at what other schools are doing— S. Fedele researched discipline policies.

  4. A. Alcoser shared that he heard Dr. Johnny Alvarado speak at one of his graduate classes. • J. Toste contacted Dr. Alvarado. • A. Alcoser & J. Toste attended Dr. Alvarado’s seminar on the Time To Teach Program on 5/9/15. • On May 12th Dr. Alvarado came to SHS to give the committee an overview of the Time to Teach Program. • The committee decided to introduce the Time To Teach Program at a voluntary meeting on (5/18/15) to see if it’s something we’d like to take to staff for a vote; the answer was yes.

  5. THE VOTE—June 2015 • Multiple Emails to staff to solicit votes • 80% of the voters voted to adopt TTT @ SHS

  6. The journey begins today • Overview of the Time To Teach Program • Core Beliefs of TTT • Components of TTT • Pair Share—Positives/Concerns • Next Steps/Timeline • SHS Demographics/Needs • PBIS Update • Classroom Expectations

  7. How do I win “Fabulous” Prizes? • Listen for the prompt/question. • If you know the answer grab the noisemaker, stand up and “let her rip”!

  8. What’s the Word of the Day?

  9. Many Experienced teachers implement TTT strategies: • It took many of us years of trial and error to learn what works with kids. • The idea is to create a school wide culture of high expectations for behavior as well as academics & a system of support for students and staff members. • It takes the guess work out of classroom management!

  10. Everybody Up!!! • If this is your 1st year teaching welcome! Please come up front! If you have taught for 25 years or more, take a bow, you deserve a standing ovation! • If you have taught 21-25 years have a seat. • If you have taught from 16-20 years have a seat. • If you have taught from 11-15 years have a seat. • If you have taught from 6-10 years have a seat. • If you have taught from2-5years have a seat.

  11. Time to Teach Overview • TTT is a classroom management system • Currently in use in Clovis USD, Parlier USD, Coalinga USD, and many others. • Dr. Alvarado has trained 30+ schools in Fresno Co. • Yes, there is data to prove the effectiveness of the program! • The program eliminates multiple warnings & repeated requests of students to change their behavior; giving us “Time to Teach”!

  12. Core Beliefs of TTT • #1--Caring is key. • #2--Conflict is an essential part of growing up. • #3--Good behavior must be systematically taught. • #4--Behavior can be changed. • #5--Timing is important.

  13. Name one of the core Beliefs of TTT!

  14. 5 Components of TTT • Self Control • Teach To’s • Classroom Arrangement • Refocus • Unconditional Positive Regard

  15. #1--Self Control • The “SMARTR” Response Student Mood Assessment & Rapid Teacher Response Stay away from…. 1. Debate-Bait 2. Climbing the stairway

  16. What’s one thing adults need to avoid to keep self control?

  17. #2—Teach To’s-tlc’s • Teach expectations (behavioral) • Look for performance on those expectations • Provide timely & accurate Consequences

  18. #3--Classroom arrangement • Seating Arrangement— • Teacher Power Position • Lighting • Color • Scent • Clutter • Music

  19. #4--REFOCUS • Flow Chart For Behavioral Interventions Emergent Behavior Early Interventions Time Out OR Time In Learning Stops Learning continues Often Reinforcing REFOCUS Form (problem solving) Limited SupervisionAdequate Supervision

  20. #5—Unconditional Positive Regard • By treating students unconditionally & making all students feel they are guaranteed members of your classroom they will be less likely to challenge & more likely to work for you!

  21. Partner A has taught the fewest years in the duo. • 2 minutes to share what A likes about TTT & any questions/concerns! • Partner B has taught the most years in the duo-listens & will paraphrase for 1 minute. • Partner B shares for 2 minutes (likes/concerns). • Partner A listens and paraphrases (1 minute). • Complete “Concern Cards” & leave them on the table, please put your name on it if you want us to get back to you.

  22. Next Steps • 1—The journey begins today! • 2—Semester #1—Building Infrastructure • Form a SCHOOL CLIMATE TEAM to set up our infrastructure and systems for 2015-2016. • Meetings will be held the following Mondays @ 3:20: • Aug. 24th, Sept. 14th& 28th, Oct. 12th & 26th, Nov. 9th & 16th, • Dec. 7th& 14th, Jan. 25th, Feb. 1st & 29th, March 7th & 14th, • April 4th & 18th, and May 2nd & 16th. • 3—Jan. 11, 2016 TTT Training @ SHS • 4—1/12/16-TTT IMPLENTATION ONGOING MONITORING, DATA COLLECTION, AND ADJUSTMENTS.

  23. What’s our ttt implementation date?

  24. STUDENT DEMOGRAPHICSRISK FACTORS

  25. How does this impact shs??? • Students who are suspended or expelled are as much as 5x more likely to dropout and 3x more likely to have contact w/ the juvenile justice system. • 1 out of 5 girls and 1 out of 20 boys by the age of 18 is a victim of childhood sexual abuse =PTSD • Fresno Co. is the poorest in CA • Fatherless children= 63% suicide rate • 71% dropout rate • 85% behavioral disorders • “HURT PEOPLE HURT PEOPLE”

  26. There is hope! • Multiple stressors w/out resources to cope lead to “negative” behaviors—look for the cause, not changing the student but changing the behavior. • The single most protective factor when a kid has toxic stress is a caring adult. The more caring adults=better for the students/school. • 5 KEYS FOR ALL ADULTS AT SCHOOL: • CARING • HIGH EXPECTATIONS • TEACHING EXPECTED BEHAVIORS • CONSISTENCY • FAIRNESS

  27. ALWAYS REMEMBER: “Kids don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.” *How do/can you show students you care? Share w/ your shoulder partner for 1 minute. Repeat.

  28. WHY? AKA Rationale • PBIS is the law—Ca. Senate Bill #1396 • 20% of school age youth experience a functional or significant behavior or mental health disorder. (SHS--20% of 1700=340) Positive Behavior Intervention & Support can fill the gap in services by providing a comprehensive & collaborative prevention & intervention framework for school climate, academics & behavior—we have choices in how we meet the demands of the law!!

  29. recite Selma’s High Five!

  30. Selma high’s five • BELIEVING • ENCOURAGING • ACCEPTING • RESPECTING • SUPPORTING

  31. Expectations?? • What are your 3 main expectations for student behavior in your class(es)? Make a mental note. • Share your expectations with your shoulder partner. • Repeat. • Share the similarities/differences in your expectations.

  32. contest • What are Selma High School’s Classroom Expectations? • First person who writes all 5 correctly wins a fabulous prize!!!

  33. shs classroom expectationsWe have them, but do we teach them???? • 1. Know when to talk, know when to listen. • 2. Come with a positive attitude. • 3. Put forth your best effort at all times. • 4. Be on time and prepared to learn. • 5. Students will be respectful & encouraging towards others at all times. Do we model these behaviors for students????

  34. STUCTURE & CONSISTENCY The more chaotic their lives are; the more structure & consistency students need at school! • Rules & routines give students a feeling of security. • Rules & routines reinforce the skills that every student must have in order to be a successfullearner. • Rules & routines allow a teacher to to be a fair disciplinarian.

  35. How do we teach expectations? • Begin on Day #1—you will recoup the time spent on this throughout the rest of the year! • Consistent across campus on the 5 on the poster; specific classroom practices are up to individual teachers. • Model lesson plans on your tables along w/ a template.

  36. Clean up • Bear Team Sign Up • Meeting Schedules • Concern Cards • Other???? • Baby steps

  37. Remember:

  38. NEW LAW FOR CALIFORNIA: ab420 • California Ed. Code 48900(k)(2). • Effective Jan. 1, 2015 through July 1, 2018 due to sunset clause. • CA first state to change zero-tolerance policies by amending the law to decrease suspension and expulsion percentages in public schools. • Eliminates the catch-all category for suspensions for K-3 students and for expulsions K-12.

  39. SWPBS is about. . . *Improving classroom & school climate *Building family-community-school collaborations *Integrating academic & behavior initiatives *Improving support for students with EBD *Decreasing reactive management *Maximizing academic achievement

  40. summary • School-wide PBIS is an approach for investing in making the school a more effective social and educational setting for adults. • The scale-up of SWPBIS leads to a need for systems integration & coordination. • Core features of PBIS are an effective framework for improving Behavior & Academic Support.
