WHAT IS PBIS?
Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based three-tiered framework to improve and integrate all of the data, systems, and practices affecting student outcomes every day. PBIS creates schools where all students succeed.
Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports
A Safe Zone is a designated location where students can receive support and resources needed in order to be successful in school. Our Safe Zone program was implemented through the Reducing LGBTQ Adolescent Suicide (RLAS) organization to assist students that may be facing barriers. Each school has a designated Safe Zone, which can be identified with Safe Zone signage.

Section 504
Section 504 is a civil rights statute that provides certain protections to special education and general education students, employees, parents, and community members with disabilities.
Students with disabilities who do not qualify for services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1990 (IDEA) may have rights if they are eligible under Section 504.
A person who has a physical or mental impairment which substantially limits one or more major life activities, such as caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, learning, or working, has a disability under 504.
