PBIS

What do the letters PBIS stand for?
PBIS stands for Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports.

What are Pride points?
Pride points are a slip of paper given to a student when they are caught practicing the expectations that we want all students to follow in the school. Our matrix is posted all over the school as a reminder of what is expected.

What do the students do with the pride points when they are given them?
All teachers have a bucket on their desk to collect pride points. They are collected weekly and put into a drawing. Your student may have come home last year with a prize! They are split into categories: PreK-3rd, 4th-6th, 7th-9th, & 10-12th gr. We also do a monthly drawing which is a little bigger. We have played BINGO at quarter break school-wide over the intercom system which has also been a favorite!

Who can hand out pride points?
Any staff member in the school has access to the pride points and can hand them out at any time. Ex: Classroom, recess, hallways, bus, lunchroom, etc.

What is the goal?
Our goal at Mahnomen Public Schools is for all students to learn and understand expectations needed to be successful in school and the real world.

Mahnomen Public School will promote caring relationships, ownership of behaviors, and mutual respect for all people while providing a foundation for academic success.
