Dear Parents,
Schools are successful when they help children grow academically, socially, and emotionally. For this to happen, it is important that we have a safe environment that is supportive and conducive for growth. By setting forth clear social and behavioral expectations and directly teaching students about those expectations, it is our goal to continue to have a positive atmosphere for optimal learning. We are excited to inform our families that Pineview and Westside Elementary School are participating in Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). PBIS is a school-wide system that includes proactive strategies for teaching, modeling, and reinforcing appropriate student behavior. We are using this program to help our students have a safe, positive learning environment and to provide consistency in all areas of our schools.
We have adopted a unified set of behavioral expectations. You will see these expectations posted throughout the schools, and your child will be learning them during the first weeks of school. Our unified classroom rules will be found in every classroom and in non-classroom settings in the school. The behavioral expectations are as follows:
“ Be Safe, Be Kind, and Be Responsible”
