PBIS Excellence Award: Silver Recognition

Forest Hill achieves Silver Recognition Award for PBIS Excellence!

California PBIS initiated the first statewide effort in 2015 to implement a recognition system that acknowledges schools for implementing PBIS with fidelity to the national framework. Schools apply to be recognized as Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum PBIS schools.

According to the California PBIS website, our "dedication and commitment to the students, families, and communities...is a major contributing factor to the excellence in education in the state of California."

Forest Hill's PBIS system involves our three behavior expectations - Be Responsible, Be Respectful, and Be Safe. We have our Falcon Wing tickets, monthly Falcon Fest assemblies with our Falcon of the Month recognition system and raffle drawings (VIP table and cafeteria front of the line pass winners), and this year's new Feather in Your Cap student recognition phone calls. At the beginning of the year, students are taught behavior expectations which are then reviewed throughout the year.  All of these things working together is what helped us get recognized! 

At home, ask your student when they have gotten a Falcon Wing and why. They should be able to share the reason and if it was because they were responsible, respectful, and/or safe.
