Seventh Annual Tennessee SWPBS Conference
Welcome to Tennessee’s 7th Annual Conference School-Wide Positive Behavior Support Conference!
Dear Conference Participant,
EdPro Development welcomes you to Tennessee’s Seventh Annual School-wide Positive Behavioral Support (SWPBS) Conference! SWPBS is an integrated, multi-tiered systems approach that supports schools to create safe and effective learning environments through the development, implementation and evaluation of a tiered teaching, prevention and intervention response-to-intervention system of support. SWPBS is not a curriculum or a packaged product. This approach places an emphasis on schools and districts developing, implementing, and evaluating the critical features all within their own unique social and cultural contexts.
The research, practice, and evidences of success of SWPBS are unparalleled in educational history. With the Tennessee Department of Education adopting RtI2, schools and districts who are implementing this approach are poised to be the RtI2 leaders in our state. Many of you attending this conference have embraced SWPBS and have seen how the academic and behavioral supports blend together. You have experienced how the SWPBS Tier 2 teams have become the RtI2 teams of Tennessee’s RtI2 model.
More than ever, in this era of limited funding, multiple initiatives and increased complexity of student needs, educators need a platform for integrating multiple initiatives while efficiently and effectively serving our diverse student population. SWPBS provides this platform. When implemented with accuracy over time, SWPBS is making a difference in Tennessee Schools.
This remains a one-of-a-kind conference. It includes presenters from across the state of Tennessee, as well as national experts in SWPBS. Our emphasis continues to be placed on providing an opportunity for our presenters to share with you their expertise and experiences. We hope you have fun as you learn and take back useful information that will assist you as you begin or continue your own integrated SWPBS/RtI2 efforts!
At EdPro Development, we celebrate each of you here today. You are making a difference for Tennessee’s students. The job cannot be done without you! We hope you enjoy the conference!
Sincerely,
The EdPro Development Team

Seventh Annual Tennessee SWPBS Conference
Conference Strands
The breakout sessions for the conference are organized into strands to assist you in finding the presentations you are most interested in attending. Strands for the conference are as follows:
Tier 1 (Universal/Primary Preventions) Tier 1 supports are for ALL students, meeting the needs of approximately 80-85% of the students in your school. If you are new to the process of SWPBS, this strand is a good place for you to start. Universal/Primary preventions include: •Identify & define school-wide rules & behavioral expectations •Teach behavioral expectations associated with school-wide rules •Develop a school-wide system for encouraging/reinforcing "rule following" •Develop an array of procedures for addressing violations to school-wide behavioral expectations •Design environments for smooth transitions and routines •Collect ongoing data for data-based decision-making
Tier 2 (Secondary Interventions) Tier 2 systems are designed for students whose needs are not met successfully with Tier 1/Universal Preventions and for whom extra, additional and/or different supports will be needed. Typically, with Tier 1 preventions in place, Tier 2 interventions are needed for only 10-15% of the students who are at risk for engaging in more serious behavior problems and/or academic failures. These systems also merge with the problem-solving model of Response to Intervention (RTI).
Tier 3 (Tertiary Interventions) Tier 3 interventions are designed for students who exhibit the most chronic and severe patterns of problem behavior. Tertiary interventions and supports are necessary for 1-5% of students in a school where Tier 1 preventions and Tier 2 interventions are in place. These sessions will address the team-based approach to the wrap-around process, comprehensive functional behavior assessment and behavior support planning for individual students who exhibit extreme problem behaviors.
High SchoolHigh schools (and large middle schools) experience unique challenges not experienced typically by elementary schools. We have devoted an entire strand to assist those of you with this challenge. This strand addresses the planning and implementation of school-wide positive behavior support at the High School level.

Having SWPBS already in place in our school has been instrumental with helping us transition to the new State Mandated RTI Model. Join us as we share how we tweaked our practices in Tier II and Tier III to comply with the new mandate.
2. Cane Creek Cubs: Make Your Behavior GRRRREAT!Speakers: Lesley Worsham, Summer Shelton, Pam GolliherStrand: Tier 1 Location: Hermitage BMembers form Cane Creek Elementary will present ideas on how they incorporated school-wide positive behavior in their first year of implementation.

5. SWPBS in an Alternative School: What About the “Bad” Kids? Speakers: Joe Matheney, Chris Winningham, Elisabeth Jones Strand: Tier 1 – Alternative School Location: Two Rivers Alternative schools need not be “holding tanks” for students with behavioral and/or academic problems. SWPBS offers unique opportunities for students in a small or alternative setting. White Plains Academy (WPA) is an alternative school serving grades 5-12 in Putnam County . Attendance at WPA is based on violations of behavior or zero tolerance policies; students also attend WPA for credit recovery. Come hear how we have successfully implemented SWPBS with very positive results. If SWPBS works with our population of students, then it should work anywhere!
6. Turning the Key to Instruction Through Assistive TechnologySpeaker: Trisha Ellison, Janice ReeseStrand: Tier 3 Location: KingsleySupporting the communication needs of our most challenged learners is paramount in the delivery of instructional services.

12Seventh Annual Tennessee SWPBS Conference
7. A Guiding Framework for Tier 2 Behavior SupportsSpeakers: Jennifer ButterworthStrand: Tier 2 Location: Hermitage AWith limited resources and overlapping behavior support and academic needs of students with behavior challenges, it becomes critical for schools to integrate and use these resources judiciously rather than to continue to manage the multiple and varied initiatives separately During this session, the presenter will share a framework for integrating academic and behavior support interventions for targeted groups of students who do not respond fully to quality Tier 1 preventive discipline and standards-based differentiated instruction.
8.

15. The Building Block for Effective SWPBS TeamsSpeaker: Tony ClowerStrand: Tier 1 Location: Hermitage BInitiating, developing, implementing and evaluating practices of Tier 1 SWPBS can be a daunting process. In order to be efficient with team members’ time and resources, it makes sense to standardize the process. This session will focus on the use of a standardized Tier 1 agenda used by school teams and SWPBS coaches to assist teams in their journey toward establishing and sustaining Tier 1 systems of support. The presenter will share how schools across the state are using the agenda as the action plan to guide their efforts from training to implementation.
16. Implementing SWPBS at the High School Level: Lessons Learned Speaker: Ginny McElhaney
Strand: High School Location: BelmontDid you know that high schools have unique needs as they seek to implement SWPBS? They are bigger, have older students, more staff, and more pressures for students to accrue those academic credits and graduation rates. In order to build the triangle of SWPBS successfully, there are truly unique strategies to initiate, implement, and sustain SWPBS at the high school level. Washburn has been implementing SWPBS for over ten years and has learned many valuable lessons. During this session, Washburn School's principal will share her insights and facilitate a discussion amongst session participants to assist them in their own journeys.
17. Moving from Punitive Consequences to Tiered InterventionsSpeaker: Laura WinterStrand: Tier 1 &2 Location: Two RiversFollow the journey of one North Carolina Middle School that moved from an historic “strike” system as a way to respond to problem behavior to a new system that collects behavior data and provides a tiered system of interventions with a continuum of effective consequences at each level.

Seventh Annual Tennessee SWPBS Conference
18. Top Ten Supports for Students with AutismSpeaker: Melissa BrownStrand: Tier 3 Location: KingsleyThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicate that approximately 1 in 88 American children are on the autism spectrum. More specifically, it’s estimated that 1 in 54 boys, and 1 in 252 girls are diagnosed with autism in the US. Given this statistic every educator, whether general education teacher, special education teacher, administrator or educational assistant needs to have a variety of strategies at their fingertips for supporting students with Autism in all environments. In this session the presenter will outline the top 10 supports for students with Autism. These same supports can, should be and are being used with other students with varying support needs. While this is a tier 3 session it will benefit anyone currently working in an American school in 2013.
