Effective Behavior and Instructional Support
The EBIS team has three purposes:
1. To review school-wide behavior and academic data in order to evaluate the effectiveness of core programs.
2. To screen and identify students needing additional academic and/or behavior support.
3. To plan, implement and modify interventions for these students. Depending on each student’s “response to intervention,” a formal referral for special education evaluation may result.
EBIS is intended to be a structured, systematic process involving the following features and activities: team membership, school-wide planning, planning for the 20%, monthly meetings, and individualizing-intensifying interventions.
