Positive Choices are Always A Win!

Please help me give my students some fantastic incentives to work towards making great choices academically and behaviorally!

This project is fully funded

My Project

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) programs that reward students with incentives, such as earning “cash” to shop at a school store, encourage positive behavior, and foster a supportive school culture. This approach motivates students to make good choices, reinforces desired behaviors, and builds a sense of accomplishment. By offering tangible rewards, like basketballs, footballs, and candy options, PBIS creates a direct connection between positive actions and meaningful outcomes, promoting engagement and accountability. Additionally, the system enhances social-emotional learning by teaching responsibility, decision-making, and the value of hard work. Schools benefit from improved behavior, stronger student-teacher relationships, and a positive learning environment!
