at those of you who asked a few years ago (Beth Jahn, etc.) think about the=
system. �Our school district is rolling this out and my school has been =
asked to be in the first cohort. �We had a 30 minute presentation this mo=
rning on PBIS, with much more to come, I'm sure. �Our conversation is jus=
t getting started at our school. �What do you like about it? �What don'=
t you like about it? �What about your classroom teachers? �What does th=
e parent/home piece look like? �One of our biggest issues in our building=
is that our 4th and 5th graders won't listen to the other teachers (i.e. t=
eachers of younger grades). �I totally realize that this won't solve all =
of the behavior issues - there are some kids I already know won't respond a=
s intended to this system - but it should cut down on the school-wide issue=
s in general. �

You are welcome to respond either to the list or to me privately. �My e-m=
ail address is below my name.

Thanks all!
