The PBS committee has identified and outlined a set of expected behaviors for Marshall School's playgrounds, hallways, and bathrooms. Using this list as a guide, it has, for many years, been the committee's goal to have all faculty and staff consistently reinforce these desired behaviors.
Please review these attributes of Greatness At Marshall with your students. Signage which reiterates these components of our school-wide Tier 1 positive behavior support framework has been placed in the common spaces throughout the school.
