Enatai Elementary and the Bellevue School District utilize Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) to help students understand, develop, and strengthen skills to be positive and productive members of our school community. Throughout the year, we work together to teach, model, and reinforce our Positive Personal Standards, which include: Show Respect, Make Good Decision, and Solve Problems.

 

At Enatai Elementary School, we use a proactive and restorative* approach to behavior:

  • We teach students about our Positive Personal Standards (Show Respect, Make Good Decision, and Solve Problems), and we review these expectations regularly.
  • We discuss and practice what these expectations look like in variety of school settings.
  • We teach and discuss as a community how to identify and prevent bullying behavior.
  • We practice how to solve problems and how to use conflict resolution strategies.
  • We positively reinforce our expectations and use mistakes as a time to learn and repair harm.

School discipline has several key goals:

  1. Ensure the safety of students and staff.
  2. To create a positive and productive learning environment.
  3. To teach and strengthen positive behavior skills.
  4. Repair harm when necessary.

*Restorative Practices provide our community opportunities for individuals to share their feelings, build relationships, and solve problems; and when there is wrongdoing, to play an active role in addressing the harm and making things right.  For more information, please visit:  http://www.iirp.edu/what-we-do/what-is-restorative-practices
