Core Values ~ We are Safe, Thoughtful, Accountable, and Respectful

We are proud to utilize the PBIS framework to support our students!  Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a preventative and positive multi-tiered system of support embraced by the Little Rock School District to foster a safe and positive learning environment. 

 PBIS includes four main components: 

1. Clearly defining and teaching behavioral expectations 
2. Consistently acknowledging and rewarding expected behavior 
3. Providing clear and consistent interventions when students break expectations 
4. Using behavioral data to assess progress and address needs 

When students demonstrate safe, thoughtful, accountable, and respectful behavior, students will learn at higher levels and earn star coins. 

Students can earn star coins to make deposits at the PBIS Bank and purchase goods and services in the PBIS store.  S.T.A.R. Behavior Shines!

Daily 5 is a literacy program designed to encourage reading and writing through meaningful activites to build a culture of highly engaged independent learners.

The Response to Intervention (RTI) program identifies students who may be at risk for learning or behavior challenges, then offers supports, interventions and progress monitoring to help them to succeed.

The  21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) After school program provides academic enrichment during non-school hours to help students meet state and local student standards in core academic subjects.

R.I.S.E. (Reading Initiative for Student Excellence) is a statewide reading campaign that promotes the importance of reading and provides guidance and resources to assist in meeting your child's literacy needs.
