Building a Strong PLC with PBIS Integration LIMITED
Wednesday May 28, 2025 2:30pm - 4:00pm CDT
Room 1311
Dr. Will McDowell has been able to work directly with over 50 schools at all levels in their PBIS integration. One of the most effective PLC teams with whom he has gotten to work is the 4th-grade team at Black Bob Elementary School. In this interactive presentation, we draw upon the science of PBIS and how the team of Janee Boswell, Melissa Thorsell, Kevin Nicholls, and Kelsey Huston so effectively integrates the practices of a multi-tiered system of support for not only their students’ behavior, but their own. You will leave with actionable ideas to help your own team function with greater alignment, trust, and clarity.
