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.
PLC
Professional Learning Communities (PLC) 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.
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.
STEAM
Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math (STEAM) at PVSchools is an interdisciplinary approach that fosters collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking, empowering students to thrive and contribute to their community. STEAM cultivates curiosity and a passion for lifelong learning through engaging experiences, preparing students for successful post-secondary pathways and fulfilling careers.
