3 R'S AT PALISADES
Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an acronym you will hear a lot of at Palisades. It refers to the way in which our school-family addresses the 3 R’s that are the backbone of our mission and vision.
RESPECTFUL
RESPONSIBLE
READY TO LEARN
The 3 R's are reinforced daily with Wave Tickets. Students can earn Wave Tickets from staff members for being respectful, responsible, and/or ready-to-learn. Students who exhibit the 3 R's are recognized as Waves of the Week during the Friday Flag Ceremonies. The Wave tickets can also be used to buy things from the Wave store or earn a lunch with Principal Baggio or Assistant Principal McDougall!
THE BEHAVIOR MATRIX
The Behavior Matrix details the expectations for students in all areas of the school.
