Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based, tiered framework for supporting students’ behavioral, academic, social, emotional, and mental health. When implemented with fidelity, PBIS improves social emotional competence, academic success, and school climate. It also improves teacher health and wellbeing. It is a way to create positive, predictable, equitable and safe learning environments where everyone thrives.

MTSS addresses the academic, behavioral, and social-emotional learning of all students in a fully integrated system of support. PBIS is aligned with the five principles of Inclusive Behavior Instruction within California MTSS: (a) Identify a comprehensive assessment system, (b) Create and utilize teams to engage in data based decision making, (c) Provide universal behavior supports for ALL students, (d) Provide targeted behavior interventions and supports for some students, and (e) Provide intensive individualized interventions and supports for few students.
