This page is intended to serve as a resource to administrators in PBS buildings. Your role is CRUCIAL to the success of your team’s/building’s PBS initiative. Administrators take a role in PBS that is different from their role in other school initiatives. Their buy-in and support of PBS is indeed critical for the initiatives success, but the leadership of PBS should come from staff members. Without staff members’ buy-in and leadership of PBS, the initiative will not have the “legs” it needs in the long run.

Administrator Quote of the YEAR:

“PBS is a philosophy, not a program. PBS work is hard, PBS work is worth it, PBS work is never done.”
