    Twin Peaks implements a Positive Behavior Support System in which consistency of behavior will be expected throughout all parts of the school community.

    Our school-wide expectations are: 
    Tiger Cubs Rrr Pawsitively...Respectful, Responsible, and Ready to Learn.

    In the fall, teachers spend a significant amount of time teaching and modeling our school-wide expectations.  Students will be acknowledged for appropriate behaviors with Positive Paws.  Tiger Tails will be used to remind students of our expectations when they behave inappropriately.

    Twin Peaks PBIS program has validated the benefits of directly teaching students our expectations, and acknowledging appropriate behaviors. This has paid off with a significantly reduced number of discipline incidents on our campus. Go Tiger Cubs!
