Behavior Specific Praise

Provide Specific Praise for Behavior:

Step 1: Identify the student or group

Step 2: Include a term of praise

Step 3: Describe/Acknowledge specific behavior/rule being �recognized

Step 4: (best practice): Link to school-wide expectation

Step 5: (optional): Provide tangible reinforcement, DPR points, etc.

Non-examples:

  • “Brian is sitting in his seat.”
  • Saying “good job” without connecting to school-rule.
  • Giving ticket without saying anything
  • Only giving a ticket for “above and beyond” behavior

”Diane, Awesome! You are demonstrating Listening to the speaker, that's being ‘respectful!’”

“This whole table group cleaned up their lab area when the period bell rang. Well done! Way to show ‘responsibility.’”

30 seconds or less!

The Wilson Way

Classroom Rules

Be Responsible

  • Stay on task
  • Clean up area
  • Apologize for mistakes

Be Respectful

  • Raise hand
  • Listen to speaker
  • Follow directions

Be Safe

  • Walk quietly

Steps to Specific and Contingent �Error Correction:

1. Respectfully address student

2. Describe inappropriate behavior

3. Describe expected behavior/rule

4. Link to school-wide expectation on Matrix

5. End with encouragement

1 minute or less!

Example: “Joe [privately and with sincere voice tone], I saw that you were talking to your neighbor during independent work time. The expectation during independent time is focus on your own work which is Doing Your Best. Go ahead and start on your work again, and I’ll stop by to catch you doing your best.”

Data-Based Decision Making�Numbers to Keep in Mind

  • 80-90%: Percent of total population whose needs will be met by Tier 1 alone

  • 5-15%: Percent of total population expected to need and be supported by Tier 2 interventions
  • 1-5%: Percent of total population expected to need and be supported by Tier 3 interventions�

PBIS

28 of 97

Why do you want 5-10% on CICO?

  • Students in the past who would not have gotten any support “until things got worse” will now get a positive boost of support

  • CICO will be a layered support --- students in groups or with FBA-BIP can still benefit in CICO.

  • Teachers to request assistance and utilizing highly efficient, low-level school-wide interventions

TFI 2.3 & 2.4 Purpose & Outcomes

Purpose:

Develop a process to identify students in need of Tier 2 supports, including a system for staff, families, and students to specifically ask for support.

Outcomes:

  • 2.3 Screening: Tier 2 team uses decision rules and multiple sources of data (e.g., ODRs, academic progress, screening tools, attendance, teacher/ family/student nominations) to identify students who require Tier 2 supports.
  • 2.4 Request for Assistance: Tier 2 planning team uses written request for assistance form and process that are timely and available to all staff, families, and students.

TFI 2.3: Screening &

TFI 2.4: Request for Assistance

PBIS

48 of 97

Let’s Connect

  • How do students currently access tier 2 SEB supports in your building?
    • Are there specific data sources (e.g., ODRs, suspensions, attendance) monitored?
    • Does a team of people come together to make the decision?

48

49 of 97

Key Components of a Single Request for Assistance Process

  • There is a continuum of interventions beyond Tier 1 defined that represents both school-based and community-based interventions.

  • There are data decision rules (e.g., data source and thresholds) in place for each intervention to identify when students might receive additional support to ensure early access.

  • One Request for Assistance form for all providers (e.g., school and community based) that families, students, and teachers may complete if a student is displaying a need not identified by data.

  • Defined routines and procedures outlining who is responsible, and what actions must occur, to efficiently connect students to the full continuum of interventions.

PBIS

50 of 97

What are data decision rules?

  • Identify expanded data sources and thresholds for matching student need to intervention

  • Include rules for how students:
    • How students are identified to begin intervention (IN)
    • How student data will be monitored for progress during intervention (ON)
    • When student will be successful to fade to lower intervention (OUT)

Footer

50

51 of 97

Why are Data Decision Rules helpful?

  • Promote earlier student access to intervention
  • Increase efficiency to monitor progress
  • Reduces disproportionate placements
  • Increases efficiency to identify students and monitor progress
  • Prioritizes outcomes over access to intervention

51

52 of 97

Consider Multiple Data Points

Consider what data is collected at Tier 1 and ready to support in identifying students for Tier 2.

Center on PBIS. (2025). Tier 2 School-Level Systems Guide. Center on PBIS, University of Oregon. www.pbis.org

  • Expand beyond traditional discipline data (e.g., ODRs, suspensions)
  • Include time out of instruction indicators:
    • Attendance, nurse visits, counselor requests, hall passes
  • Multiple data sources help identify a range of SEB needs

PBIS

53 of 97

Ensure Quality Data

Select data sources that:

    • Have clear procedures for data entry
    • Are entered consistently across staff
    • Can generate easy-to-access reports 

These indicators will not only support consistent student identification, but also ongoing progress monitoring.

PBIS

54 of 97

Data Thresholds�Important Considerations

  • Aim for early identification
    • Ensure students receive support as soon as need emerges
    • Set thresholds for early access to intervention
      • Example: A student with three suspensions likely needs more than a low-level Tier 2 support. A bandage won’t fix a broken ankle. 
  • Local context matters
    • Student populations vary and risk levels look different from school to school
    • Data collection practices differ
      • Some schools rarely document administrator-managed behaviors, while others document consistently
      • Making thresholds differ, even when data sources are the same
  • Exceptions to the rules. 
    • Example: A student that moves into your building with high frequency and intensive behaviors likely needs to be matched to a higher-level Tier 2 or Tier 3 intervention.

PBIS

55 of 97

Data-Based Decision-Rules: �Sample to Consider

a) Identification for CICO (IN):

    • Student is identified by meeting one of the following criteria:
      • 2 or more ODRs,
      • 2 unexcused absences,
      • 2 incomplete homework assignments,
      • Request from family or school staff, etc.

b) Progress-monitoring (ON):

    • DPR data is collected daily & reviewed every other week. Data is collected for 4-6 weeks (individual buildings decide whether 4 or 6 weeks will be better for their students).

c) Exiting/transitioning (OUT):

    • Student received a total of 80% of DPR points averaged per day/week for 4 weeks and has had no new ODRs or attendance or homework concern. Student may be transitioned into being a CICO student mentor.

PBIS

56 of 97

Consider Multiple Data Points

Traditional:

  • Minor Discipline Referrals
  • Office Discipline Referrals
  • In-School / Out-School Suspension
  • Loss of instructional time
  • Visits to nurse, counselor, secretary, administrator
  • GPA
  • Benchmark Testing
  • Incomplete classwork / homework
  • Unexcused Absences
  • Tardies
  • Students new to your school
  • Family, Teacher, or Student Referral

Considerations for Data Points for Distance Learning:

  • ODRs – redefine problem behavior and process for responding
  • Lack of engagement in instruction (example next slide)
  • Family/student wellness check-ins (example upcoming slide)
  • Support stronger request for assistance
    • When might a teacher be concerned?
    • Do students/families know about supports in place for students to access?

REMOTE

IN-PERSON

PBIS

57 of 97

CONSIDER THE NEED FOR� DECISION RULE EXCEPTIONS

  • Remember there is a need to have exceptions for extenuating circumstances (we have to have rules so we can have exceptions, otherwise everything ends up being an exception).

  • CICO continues to be the first line of defense, however there are exceptions/times when it’s not enough

  • We are sharing examples, considerations, things to think about, ways to think about exceptions

  • There are sometimes kids who already have IEP’s but haven’t had access to interventions outside of the IEP system/structure.

  • Not about creating new decision rules

  • Consider using multiple data points

Considerations for getting started with Universal Screening

  • Have tier two interventions in place prior to doing a screening

Data-Based Decision-Rules: Sample to Consider

  1. Identification for CICO (IN):

Student is identified by one of the following data criteria:

    • Moderate elevation in one domain on universal screener
    • 2 or more ODRs
    • 10% out of class time
    • Request for assistance from student, staff or family

b) Progress-monitoring (ON):

    • DPR data is collected daily & reviewed every other week. DPR daily percentage is trending upward and ODRs/time out of class trending downward.

c) Exiting/transitioning (OUT):

    • Student received a total of 80% of DPR points averaged per day/week for 4 weeks and has had no new ODRs or time out of class for 3 weeks. Student will begin the fading process.

Planning Ahead at Tier 2 �for your Universal Screening Data

You know you are doing universal screening in September. Therefore, your PROBLEM-SOLVING TEAM schedules a half day meeting in early October to

    • Discuss aggregate universal screening results (e.g., classrooms, grade level)

    • Apply data decision rules of what to do for youth who are elevated on the screener (does anything need to change)

    • Problem solve around some individual youth who have the highest-level needs based upon the screener

REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE PROCESS

PBIS

65 of 97

Let’s Connect

  • Do you currently have a procedure for staff, families, and/or students to request support?
    • Is there more than one procedure (e.g., one for social worker, one form for problem solving team)?
    • Is the request for assistance form easy to complete?
    • What are the procedures for submitting the form?
    • How can students, families submit form? Does the form need to be translated?
    • What is the response time between submission to student and staff receiving supports?

Language Shift�within an Integrated System

Referral process transfers the responsibility and ownership for student’s mental health interventions to a separate person or system.

Hand-off approach

Request for assistance process places decisions about all interventions within a single set of blended teams.

Shared decision making

Considerations for RFA Process

  • Anyone should to be able to Request for Assistance at any time.
    • Students, Staff, Families
    • Anywhere there is a mention of support, link to RFA form (e.g., family newsletters, virtual ‘break rooms’ for students)

  • Ideally data is identifying most students early and RFAs decline

  • Creates efficient process to match student to intervention�
  • Training for both school and community employed staff will be necessary

68 of 97

What does process look like?

  • One Request for Assistance form for all providers (e.g., school and community based)

  • One Coordinator assigned to review all Requests for Assistance

  • Coordinator matches student to low level tier 2 intervention or requests support at next SEB Support Team

Sample Request for Assistance Form

Considerations for accessibility:

  • Use simple, jargon free language
  • Keep short and efficient to complete (less than 5 mins)
    • Use checkboxes and dropdowns when possible
    • Collect basic information of student, informant, and type of concern
  • Provide examples or brief guidance where needed
  • Offer form in multiple languages
  • Check usability on multiple devices
  • Consider same form for all respondents to promote efficiencies (see example with differentiated question based upon respondent)

Sample Scenario: �Request for Assistance Process

A teacher stops the school social worker in the hallway to discuss concerns about a student in their classroom being off task and putting hands on other students. The school social worker listens to the concerns and reminds the teacher of the RFA form. The school social worker prompts the teacher to complete the RFA that will likely start the student in CICO.

Coordinator receives RFA and passes onto the CICO Coordinator. The student begins CICO the next week.

Sample Scenario:�Request for Assistance Process

A principal is meeting with a parent of a new student in the school. The parent is concerned about how the student will adjust and expresses concern for the student forming relationships. The principal discussing CICO with the parent and completes the RFA immediately following the conversation.

Coordinator receives the RFA and passes onto the CICO Coordinator. The student begins CICO the next week.

Sample Scenario:�Request for Assistance Process

A family member reads a school newsletter that introduced the new community mental health clinician. The family member has concerns regarding changes in the student’s mood, withdrawing from friends and making negative statements about themselves. The family member clicks on the ”Request Help” button in the newsletter, which prompts completion of the RFA.

Coordinator receives the RFA and reviews student data. The student had slight elevation in internalizing domain of screener. The Coordinator contacts family and refers student to SEB Support Team to match intervention.

Summary of Request for Assistance

Tier 2 Systems team monitors the screening and request for assistance process

Example: This month we received 5 Request for Assistances. 3 were from staff and 2 from families. 4 students started in CICO and 1 student was elevated to the problem-solving team.

As data decision rules and tier 2 systems are in place, the Requests for Assistances should go up or down?

• Multiple data sources used (e.g., ODRs, time out of instruction, attendance, academic performance)

• Team decision rubric

• Team meeting minutes

• School policy

0 = No specific rules for identifying students who qualify for Tier II supports

1 = Data decision rules established but not consistently followed or used with only one data source

2 = Written policy exists that (a) uses multiple data sources for identifying students, and (b) ensures that families are notified promptly when students enter Tier II supports

2.4 Request for Assistance:

Tier II planning team uses written request for assistance form and process that are timely and available to all staff, families, and students.

• School handbook

• Request for assistance form

• Family handbook

0 = No formal process

1 = Informal process in place for staff and families to request assistance

2 = Written request for assistance form and process are in place and team responds to request within 3 days

DPR Card Comment- Cautions!

  • Be careful about allowing space for open comments on the DPR. This is meant to be a data tracking tool.
  • Allowing space for comments tends to:
    • Prompt adults to write something negative
    • Discourages staff from having the verbal interaction with student (allows them to only write it)
    • Parents/families tend to “use” these comments with their student in ways they not intended
    • We lose opportunity to re-teach if we are only using written comments

Pros and Cons of doing a digital Daily Report Card (DPR)

PROS

  • Can increase fidelity of staff implementation
  • Can allow students and parents/families to view/contribute information
  • Can make it easier to view multiple weeks of data at one time for one youth
  • Can remove the stigma that paper cards can sometimes bring
  • Can remove the power struggle that can sometimes occur between student and teacher regarding the card

CONS

  • Sharing the rights of a Google Doc can be a digital disaster
  • It can be challenging to gather process data (look at data across all students)
  • Can be easier for the intervention to NOT take place (the conversation)
    • Easier for staff to “forget” ?
  • Can be hard to manage from a technology standpoint
  • Can be challenging for those who struggle with technology

TFI 2.11 Student Performance Data

Designing a DPR

  • Use the same school-wide expectations
    • CICO provides additional practice and feedback for students struggling to meet the expectations
    • Easier for CICO Coordinator and Facilitator
    • Easier for teachers to build fluency
    • Increases generalizability to new students

What about unstructured settings?

  • IF you want to keep unstructured settings as times where youth receive specific feedback (a block on the Daily Progress Report Card), then:
    • Explicitly teach all youth the expected behaviors in all areas and on all equipment, etc.
    • Provide adequate professional development to all supervisors and monitors
    • Ensure ample time for youth to receive specific feedback in those settings
    • Track data accurately for those youth during those times�
  • Otherwise, take those time slots off of the DPR, re-teach expectations during those times of day, and trust that the behaviors will be caught through a secondary system (i.e. ODRs) if necessary

DPR Rating System

  • SWIS: 3 point system (2,1,0)
  • Define points (for example)
    • 2 = Met expectations with positive behavior with no more than one reminder during a period
    • 1 = Needed 2-3 reminders/corrections during a period
    • 0 = Needed 3 or more reminders or corrections during a period

What’s in a 2 ?!

  • Remember:
    • You want your staff to be as consistent as possible about what behavior warrants a 0,1, and 2 (try using vignettes at a staff meeting to have them practice- inter-rater reliability)�
    • A 2 should be- similar behavior that is expected of other same aged youth. Not “better behavior” than what is expected for others.�
    • Staff still need to give positive praise/feedback for what a student did RIGHT to earn a 2. This will help the student do it again, and will help others in the class learn what is right/expected as well.
