Whole School Approach
Restoring Safe School Communities, Morrison, 2007
• Based in clear rules that are taught
• Rewards over punishment for behavior
compliance
• Fair and just external sanctioning system
• Social control and order
» Morrison and Vaandering
PBIS and Behavior
education.state.mn.us 9
• Promotes self–management and self-
awareness
• Teaches social skills:
– Social awareness, relationship skills
responsible decision-making
• Expects self-discipline, outside of the social
context » Morrison and Vaandering
Social Emotional Learning
education.state.mn.us 10
• Promotes social harmony and engagement
• Shifts from “managing behavior to honoring
dignity and humanity through relational
practices that focus on the individual and
community well-being”
• Community responsiveness to individual
behavior
• Development of internal sanctioning systems » Morrison and Vaandering
Restorative Approaches
education.state.mn.us 11
• Whole school approach works best for anything
• PBIS framework has shelves for all approaches
• Integration:
– Circle to re-enforce relationship while teaching
– Restorative intervention provides the leverage of
relationship to support behavior change
Integration
education.state.mn.us 12
• Circle process provides a way of teaching social
skills and the behaviors we want to see, while
under-scoring relationship and community
• Restorative interventions provide processes that
use the skills we teach
• Can respond to just the individual, but RM’s
strength is in that it provides a community
response
• Involves with respect family, youth, staff
• Offers opportunity to be culturally competent » Riestenberg
