Building Community Among Staff and Fostering Teacher Buy-in

Our presentation would focus on building positive relationships among staff members within the school, establishing a positive school culture, improving teacher morale, and fostering teacher-buy in. We believe that the success of the PBIS program at our school hinges upon the fact that our teachers bought into the program and model respect for each other. We have a family-like culture within our building which has developed over time due to creative initiatives that we put into place. Although our presentation would not specifically address strategies that parents could use in the home, it would show how a positive culture at school positively impacts relationships with all stakeholders including students, their parents, and community partners
