This school-based problem-solving model emphasizes intensive, individual interventions focusing on assessment-based strategies for high-intensity, targeted group interventions for at-risk students. The approach includes intense, durable procedures for rapid response and preventive, proactive universal interventions for all students. The process involves a 30-minute problem-solving model where a team consisting of teachers, administration, and other stakeholders collaboratively address student difficulties. The model aims to enhance student success through efficient and effective interventions. For more information, visit www.pbis.org.
