Embedding Restorative Practice in your SWPBIS | 2026 PaPBS Coaches' Day
Speaking: Ryan Carper
2/12/2026
An overarching look into how K-12 schools can blend restorative practice, including proactive and restorative circles into their SWPBIS programs. We will examine embracing the "we" approach for improving culture and climate in our schools. Restorative practice can serve as a key "intervention" in your PBIS toolbox and bridges the gap between your school/district discipline matrix, positive behavior matrix, and incentives.
This presentation is intended for those who are beginning their journey with PBIS or looking to enhance their existing PBIS program. Attendees will explore different approaches for embedding restorative practice interventions into their systems. We will examine how restorative practice strategies can be applied proactively and reactively at each Tier of the MTSS model for behavioral interventions and incentives under a SWPBIS system.
