Due to the current state budget impasse, the difficult decision has been made to cancel the 2025 MTSS & PBIS Implementers’ Forum.

Stay tuned—plans are underway to recognize and honor your achievements in a special way!

In a powerful collaboration, Appalachia IU 08, Central IU 10, and Tuscarora IU 11 brought the 10th Annual PBIS Student Summit back to Central PA! The summit united student PBIS teams and advisors for a day of learning, sharing, and celebration. Centered on the power of student voice, this event inspires and equips school teams to continue fostering safe, supportive, and positive school communities for every student.

Big shout out to Tera Moran, TaC staff developer at LIU 12, who presented a poster session at the PBIS Leadership Forum in Chicago in late October. The Forum provides a place annually for teams to learn about the latest PBIS research and strategies from leaders in the field. Click HERE to review the session materials.

Christine Donahue, IU 13 TaC, worked with her PaTTAN counterparts to provide educators from Lebanon School District with Tier 2 training. The team members' conversations surrounding screening, intervening, and building schedules showcase their best efforts to continuously improve the teaching and learning happening in their district.
