Multi- year comparative data
35
What obstacles has DMS faced?
  • lack of consistent implementation with changing
    PBIS chairs over the years
  • increased mobility and diversity of our students
    28 to 62 (2005-06)
  • Data shows that with the high mobility and
    ethnic changes last year, behavioral
    interventions increased significantly and MSA
    scores slightly decreased for previous years
    progress. During summer 2006, the DMS team worked
    to create interventions to address the rapidly
    changing demographics. Since these interventions
    were implemented this year, behavioral referrals
    have declined by 52 and suspensions have
    decreased 57 from the prior year.

36
Is PBIS working at Dundalk
  • YES! There has been no other approach that has
    matched the success of PBIS. There are some
    components that have worked better than others.
    The key element for a management program is to
    have a unified approach based on building mutual
    student and teacher respect and responsibility.
    PBIS can be a fun way to manage the middle school
    age child in groups.

37
What needs work?
  • Improved teacher / student buy-in.
  • Rapid Identification of red /yellow zone
    students.
  • More funding.
  • Greater parent involvement.
