What is SWPBIS?
School-Wide Postitive Behavior Intervention and Supports (SWPBIS) is a framework to model, teach and reinforce expected behaviors in all areas of the school. It is a research-based model with a focus on positive climate, preventing problem behavior and increased academic achievement for all students.
Our Mission:The Candlebrook community encourages everyone to be kind, respectful, responsible and safe lifelong learners by being a CANDLEBROOK CUB!
How can students show our Cub Code?
Be Kind
Be Respectful
Be Responsible
Be Safe
Acknowledgement System: When students show expected behaviors during school, they have a chance to earn Cub Cash from any staff member. Remember, Candlebrook Cubs are Kind, Respectful, Responsible, and Safe every day. Your Cub Cash demonstrates that you have showed our Cub Code or you could even earn a special reward from your school or teacher! Our PBIS program will be most successful if there is a partnership and common language between home and school. Candlebrook families are involved with acknowledgement too with giving their children Cub Coins when they demonstrate the Cub Code at home. Students are acknowledged during Friday morning meetings for earning Cub Coins at home!
