The role of this team will be to guide the positive process throughout the year(s). A team will consist of five to seven members including positive leaders. Parents and key classified staff are key ingredients. Teams will continue to work throughout the year, looking at positive behavior planning and how to put incentive programs in place for classrooms and school wide. They will look at office discipline referral data and how to implement that in decision making about the scope and intensity of behavioral issues on the campus. These site teams lead the effort at their site, and usually require technical assistance and coaching throughout the year to remain on track. There will be challenges and setbacks as the effort progresses. PBS is not a place to attempt to rehabilitate problem staff.
