Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports, also known as PBIS. PBIS is a proactive approach to teaching behavioral expectations and creating a climate where positive and appropriate behavior is seen as normal. As part of their PBIS framework, many schools adopt an incentives program. A PBIS incentives program uses token rewards to encourage students to act responsibly in all areas of school life. Most PBIS incentives programs within the school setting are do-it-yourself affairs, with teachers and administrators issuing points via paper tickets and students redeeming these tickets for rewards.
