District Initiatives
MTSS
The multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS) is used in PVSchools as a proactive and preventative framework that integrates data and instruction to maximize all student achievement. This system supports students social, emotional, and behavior needs from a strengths-based perspective.
PBIS
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.
PLC
Professional learning communities consist of collaborative teams of educators who are student-focused and inquiry-based. PLC teams meet regularly to discuss ongoing improvements in their teaching practices. When these teams work together toward common goals, they produce measurable benefits for student learning environments.
