Examples of Instruments, Artifacts, Documents for Each Descriptor
Bronze Level:
- All required forms submitted on time (EBS & Safety Surveys, TIC, team meeting minutes, Action Plan)
- Evidence baseline data collected, and ongoing data collected, reviewed and analyzed for decision making at the universal level (Big 5 data reports, Attendance & tardy rates, ISS/OSS, Expulsions, MAP, MSIP, weighting ODR data with other factors such as mobility, #F/R, #IEP, ethnicity)
- Evidence data is shared regularly with full staff (staff meeting, team meeting, grade level meeting agendas; newsletters, web mail, SW-PBS bulletin board postings, graphs/charts)
- Evidence of teaching social/behavioral skills (i.e. lesson plans, lesson plan schedule, Matrix, Walk through observations)
- Universal expectations & strategies in place (matrix, action plan, classroom and non-classroom postings)
- Evidence of maintaining or improving student outcomes (ODR, surveys, MSIP, attendance, tardies, OSS/ISS/Expulsion)
Silver Level:
- 7 Bronze Level requirements continue to be evidenced
- Evidence Team decisions based on data
- Team shares data & relationship to decisions with staff at least monthly (via full staff, grade level or departmental teams meetings) regarding targeted interventions, groups and outcomes
- Evidence of a team designated to address secondary/targeted interventions in place (SAT, Care, SST)
- Evidence Secondary/targeted team uses comparison data to aggregate, report, and assess effectiveness of secondary level supports
- Minimum of 2 evidence-based targeted group interventions are in place (describe what the 2 interventions are composed of, how they are implemented, and staff members by role who supervise them)
Gold Level:
- 6 Bronze Level requirements continue to be evidenced
- 5 Silver Level requirements continue to be evidenced
- Systems are in place to support tertiary level screening, planning, and interventions (describe the team roles and responsibilities to support the tertiary level, types of forms used, how team plans for interventions and monitors them)
- In-building or district personnel designated to address & use data for tertiary/individual interventions is in place (BIP, FBA Wraparound)
- Policies/job descriptions & other documentation supports SW-PBS activities are institutionalized (CSIP, MSIP, Action Plans)
For each category, schools may use other evaluation instruments if they have been pre-approved by their consultant before administration, and the specific purpose of the instrument has been defined.
