Response to Wenatchee Learns - Discovery Comment

What does our ideal local learning system look like?  My dream is that our School District  has adopted Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports (PBIS).  Parents, staff, and students were bothered by some of the methods of the old system and worked together to bring about change.  The new PBIS addressed our School District goals of treating each person as an individual, developing the entire person, making learning relevant and useful, including all learners, and preparing people for a successful future.  Student academic performance has increased District wide.  This new system has fostered the community's confidence in the Wenatchee School District and its leaders.  It has changed the learning environment in our schools from negative to positive for not only students but teachers, staff, parents, and administrators.
