The Alaska Department of Education & Early Development works to improve student outcomes utilizing the priorities outlined in Alaska’s Education Challenge. This initiative will provide districts/schools with the opportunity to review, refresh, and or begin working with Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports through monthly training and coaching sessions.

For students to be able to learn effectively, they need to feel safe and respected, and they need to be responsive to their teachers and peers. PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) provides the routines and systems to provide this solid foundation. Alaska’s Education Challenge Priority 5 addresses the need for a safe and healthy school environment. This training exposes school teams to a behavioral framework that will support growth in positive behavior and school culture, leading to systemic change in schools. Districts/schools will receive support and guidance from PBIS trainers to help with the planning and implementation of their programs. Creating cohorts that are trained by DEED hosted trainers ensures that the goals of the PBIS initiative are adhered to. The goal of this project is to create experts in each school who can guide their processes as they work toward positive behavioral routines and procedures.
