Chanhassen High School recognized for sustained PBIS commitment

The Minnesota Department of Education announced that 78 schools, including Chanhassen High School, have been recognized for their sustained commitment to Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). These schools and districts have demonstrated exceptional leadership in improving school climate, engaging the community, and increasing student achievement.

Minnesota Statutes 2023, section 122A.627 defines PBIS as an evidence-based framework for preventing problem behavior, providing instruction and support for positive and prosocial behaviors, and supporting the social, emotional, and behavioral needs of all students. For two decades, Minnesota schools and districts have embraced PBIS as a strategy to create positive and supportive learning environments. This year’s honorees exemplify the dedication and perseverance required to implement and sustain PBIS over time.
