The mission of Missouri Schoolwide Positive Behavior Support (MO SW-PBS) is to assist schools and districts in establishing and maintaining school environments where the social culture and behavioral supports needed to be an effective learning environment is in place for all students.
“We are gratified by the steady increase in the number of schools participating in Missouri’s Positive Behavior Support Network. More and more school districts understand that this type of systems change positively affects achievement for all kids by decreasing disciplinary incidents, increasing instructional time and improving teacher satisfaction.” ~Heidi Atkins Lieberman, Assistant Commissioner, Division of Special Education
