The PBIS Tier Three Handbook

This series of books are a must-have for schools looking to strengthen their PBIS framework. They provide the essential tools and innovative ideas for building a positive school culture with strong levels of support for ALL students. -- Lydia R. Martinez This handbook is user friendly with templates that are well-organized and ready to go. Administrators can spend time personalizing them rather than starting from scratch and missing key components. Highly recommend purchasing this handbook for your entire administrative team. -- Lisa Gonzalez, President, Association of California School Administrators As educators, we often speak about giving students second chances; The PBIS Tier 3 Handbook puts these words into action. -- Karl Kesterke The PBIS Tier Three Handbook: A Practice Guide to Implementing Individualized Interventions documents a relatively small community of special needs students whose requirement for 'tier three' support holds a major impact on others in the classroom. It offers teachers an approach to the concept and implementation of individualized interventions for this group, showing how to identify such needs, how to blend them into special needs groups and general classroom structures and objectives, and how to take actions to establish a Tier 3 environment. Many pages assume a workbook-style format with fill-in questionnaires and notes teachers can make directly into the book, while others outline red flags, typical assessment routines, and the elements and strategies of a Tier 3 environment. No educator's collection should be without this specific, important manual to classroom interventions and success. -- James A. Cox, Editor-in-Chief & Diane Donovan, Editor
