WHEN TO WRITE A
REFERRAL |
|
In order to maximize student instructional time staff are encouraged to deal with problem behavior in their classroom as much as possible. This requires that staff develop a clear discipline plan, which includes teaching expectations and routines, incentives for positive behavior, and clear classroom responses to problem behavior for their classroom.
If teachers are experiencing pervasive problem behavior in their classroom, they are advised to seek assistance or additional consultation by contacting a member of the PBIS or MTSS team for support. Staff members are encouraged to use redirections, when possible, to diffuse problem behavior and also to try to identify the motivations for behavior so that any cycle of problem behavior can be broken and/or prevented. These are strategies that should be attempted prior to sending a student out of class.

WHAT IS OUR
REFERRAL SYSTEM? |
An important measurement of PBIS and school climate progress involves tracking office discipline referrals. A school with a poor climate should see a reduction in Office Discipline Referrals as the climate improves.
Desert Mirage has moved our referral process so it is now completely digital – No paper involved! The referral can be started from the smartphone app, a tablet device or a computer. Simple electronic forms take the drudgery out of the process. |
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
MINOR REFERRAL
|
MAJOR REFERRAL
Major problem behavior is any behavior that rises to a level that the student usually needs to be removed from class.
It is expected that the staff member has attempted to diffuse the situation, has identified the motivation for the behavior, and has tried to intervene without success. It is understood that sometimes, these actions are not possible due to the severity of the behavior or certain ed. code violations. A list of identified Major Problem Behaviors can be found below:
