Data Collection Tool

Classroom Managed/Minors Classroom Teacher Daily/Weekly SW-PBS schools often collect data on classroom managed/minor behaviors. This data is used by collaborative teams to make decisions around academic and behavioral data. In addition, minor behavior data can help teams identify students for additional support, who might otherwise fly under the radar. Staff should collect the following information: 1) name of student, 2) behavior, 3) location, 4) time of day or activity. Determine a decision rule for when to record minor behaviors.

Data Collection Tool

ISS, OSS, and Expulsion Database Manager Monthly, Annually Year to date number of incidents resulting in ISS, OSS, and Expulsion, as well as the total number of days assigned to ISS or OSS. Exclusionary discipline keeps students out of instruction and prevents them from learning desired social skills. As such, SW-PBS schools seek to reduce the reliance on exclusionary practices in favor of preventive and proactive practices and instructional alternatives to suspension. SWIS (PBIS Apps)

Data Collection Tool

Risk Index, Risk Ratio, Compositional Metrics Database Manager Quarterly Risk indices, risk ratios, and compositional metrics allow schools to compare outcomes for different demographic groups (disability status, SES, race and ethnicity, etc.,) to quickly identify and progress monitor disproportional outcomes experienced by these groups.
