Tiger Pride
PBIS at GMS
What is PBIS?
Put simply, it is a proactive approach to school-wide-discipline. This initiative is meant to reinforce the positive behaviors of students doing what is expected of them as well as supporting students needing extra assistance to reach the school wide expectations of being responsible, being ready, and being respectful. The goal of our program is to create a safe learning environment for all students so that more time can be spent on quality instruction.
Mission Statement
As a result of implementing PBIS in District #102, we will promote and enhance our school culture of:
- Being Respectful
- Being Responsible
- Being Ready
This will make life in the home, community, and school better for all.
PRIDE
Through the PBIS approach, this is what we try to instill in each of our student while in attendance here at GMS. PRIDE stands for:
- Prepare
- Respect
- In Control
- Do Your Best
- Encouraging
GMS Behavior Matrix
The link below will take you to the GMS Behavior Matrix. This matrix defines the types of behaviors that we expect from our students in various places throughout our building. In essence, this creates the "curriculum" that will guide the teaching of the expected behaviors. This also enhances the communication among our staff and students in regards to what our behavior expectations are of our students.
