19. 6 Ways You Can Promote and Sustain School-wide Implementation

20. 1. Renew commitment each year Develop and recommit to team process and PBIS process with staff - ask for buy-in each year-showcase results and form a plan that addresses trends seen from this school year - if you can predict it, you can prevent it…. • Develop “marketing plan” to renew commitment -how will you keep it novel and new in school and community? • Continue to make it a priority • Administrator’s commitment is crucial • Continue to make it a top school improvement goal • As it becomes standard practice it will be easier each year

21. Use self-assessment data to action plan • and set annual goals • Collection and use of data for decision-making • Are we implementing SWPBS with fidelity? • SAS, TIC, BOQ • Are students benefiting behaviorally, emotionally, academically? • ODRs, Suspensions,Academic data • Disaggregated data • Are the systems and practices efficient? • Faculty/staff time • Student engagement • Cost benefit • Satisfaction (students, staff, families) • Are all stakeholders happy and seeing results for their efforts? • Feedback: surveys, focus groups, etc.

22. 3. Develop a “Community of Practice” that is school-wide Establish an environment where individuals can feel safe about reporting concerns, supported by their school community, and empowered to be a part of the decision making process. • Issues, concerns • Input, ideas, innovations • Data • Feedback from ALL staff • Celebrations of success

23. 4. Help teams become organized and efficient Facilitate effective meetings • Provide members with a schedule of meetings • Send out meeting agenda in advance • Establish and adhere to team meeting norms • Assign roles/responsibilities to team members • Provide a data summary that will help define problems with precision • Organize for an effective problem solving conversation A key to collective problem solving is to provide a visual context that allows everyone to follow and contribute • Document meeting minutes, decisions, actions, timelines

24. 5. Gain Community, School Board and Family Buy-in • Family engagement: • If families are engaged, they will advocate for PBIS with the school board and in the community. • Involving family voice from the beginning will promote ownership and result in fewer misunderstandings of the system

25. 6. Empower staff Make it predictable and easy for them to do!

26. When you empower staff, you start to see high fidelity. When they know their behavior has a direct impact on student outcomes and a better school environment, fidelity increases. Take 5 minutes to reflect on the 6 steps to sustainability. Where is your school? You may want to spend some of you Distict Action planning time to share your reflections and create action steps

27. Collaborative Teams People….. Process…… Tasks

28. What is collaboration? A systematic process in which we work together, interdependently, to analyze and impactprofessional practice in order to improve our individual and collective results. DuFour, Eaker, & DuFour

29. How do Functional Teams Operate? “Functional teams make higher-quality decisions and accomplish more in less time, with less distraction and frustration. Furthermore, they avoid wasting time talking about the wrong issues and revisiting the same topics over and over again because of lack of buy-in.” Pat Lencioni

30. FEAR OF CONFLICT AVOIDANCE OF ACCOUNTABILITY INATTENTION TO RESULTS WI RtI Center-PLC Session 1 LACK OF COMMITMENT Results and high expectations for each other (and respect for teammate’s work) are more important than personal gain or conveniences Team has established methods for calling each other out when not behaving in beneficial way Patrick Lencioni The Five Dysfunctions of a Team Have consensus process in place and agreements to support majority decision even if don’t agree Willing to have courageous conversations to come up with best solutions Presume positive intentions rather than ulterior motives ABSENCE OF TRUST

31. Big Idea: A Functional Team holds itself accountable for the kind of results that fuel continual improvement

32. High Will and High Skill: Where is your school?

33. Self Reflection: In which quadrant would you put your school? Why? What action steps are needed to move to High Will/ High Skill? If you are at High Will/High Skill, what action steps do you need to take to sustain?

34. Take-Aways REFLECT: What Information/Resources/Activities have I gained? PLAN: How will I use or extend this back on site? Who needs to be involved? What resources are needed? What will I share? When will I do it? How much time will it take?
