District or School-Wide PBIS
While all schools do not use the PBIS model, all schools have behavior expectations and processes. PBIS is not a district-wide approach, but research-based behavior models are used at each school.
There is a standard Behavior Matrix used across the district
- AvP – Reflection Sheets
- BVMS – PBIS RISE; everyday advisory for goal setting and check in; 6th and 7th grade SASS (Student Academic Success)
- BVHS – No Formal program; Freshman and Senior Seminar are required courses setting school expectations; Athletic/Activity Code of Conduct
- CCHS – No formal program; Advisory everyday for skill building in regulation, goal setting
Student Well Being Programs
- District Priority 3, Creating Spaces of Optimism, guides well-being programming.
- BV Schools Dignitary Program
- Second Steps is part of the K-8 health program
- Morning Circle time is used daily at the elementary school.
- Leader in Me is also implemented at elementary.
- Middle school utilizes advisory and health to emphasize well being skills.
- High school utilizes advisory, Freshman seminar and Freshman health to emphasize well being skills.
Post Secondary (ICAP) Approach
- 6-12 grade uses a digital portfolio for post-secondary planning, with primary focus in 8th grade “Bigger Picture” course, and in 9th and 12th grade seminars. In addition, every student has an advisor (same advisor 6-8 and 9-12) who provides support for grades, post-secondary goal-setting, and graduation requirements.
- Graduation Requirements approved by the Board of Education include the completion of a portfolio demonstrating the 7 C’s.
- Capstone Information. High School students develop a website as a capstone reflection of their school experience and growth in the 7 C’s. It is curated throughout high school through the seminar courses and advisories. Staff score the website and students must meet a benchmark of performance before presenting to a community panel in December of their senior year. The websites and presentations are scored.
