Florida's Positive Behavior Support

SDIRC Positive Behavior Support

SRMS Named Model PBS School

Teaching our 4 R's to students makes all the difference at SRMS. The four R's are ReadinessPBS 1, Righteousness, Responsibility and Respect. Each student is taught to do the 4 R's in different setting around the campus.

Sebastian River Middle School has earned the distinction of Model School by the Florida Positive Behavior Support (PBS) Project, based at the University of South Florida 's Department of Child and Family Studies. The school was recognized by the Florida PBS Project at the University of South Florida during a professional conference this past summer. Sebastian River Middle School Assistant Principal, Roxanne Decker, attended the conference and proudly accepted a certificate award and large banner on behalf of her school. More than two hundred Florida schools have PBS programs in place.

The criterion for selection as a "PBS Model School" includes:

  • A high Benchmarks of Quality score indicating fidelity of School-wide PBS implementation
  • Outcome data indicating progress
  • Recommendation from a coach, district coordinator, or PBS Project staff
