School-Wide Expectations - PBIS

  • Student Behavior
    At Estes, our goal is to create a learning environment conducive to all students learning at their maximum potential, where students feel safe, secure and happy. To achieve this goal, we practice the Positive Behavior Intervention Support program, which provides clear expectations for positive behavior in all areas of our campus. It recognizes students who demonstrate these behaviors on a consistent basis. Our PBIS program is based on teaching our children to:

    Be Safe - Be Respectful - Be Responsible


    We will be reinforcing these three expectations throughout the school year and would appreciate parents also taking the time to reinforce and support these goals at home.
