Positive Behavior Intervention and Support Plan (PBIS)
* PBIS focuses on rewarding positive behavior with positive attention.
* Students are awarded RAM bucks (from adults other than their own teacher) when they are "caught" having positive behavior.
*Students can earn RAM bucks in the cafeteria, restrooms, buses, playground, hallways, assemblies, and other common areas in the school.
*Every other Friday, the RAMS Mart is open during lunch so students may spend their RAM bucks.
*In the cafeteria, whole-class positive behavior is rewarded with tokens.
* When classes earn 10 tokens, they are awarded a popcorn party that Friday during lunch.
* Our school PBIS motto is RAMS:
Respect my school, myself, and others
Accept responsibility
Manage my time wisely
Show self-control
