Episode 21 Building a Blueprint for Student Success with Granville's PBIS Model

PBIS Journey to Genius

Have you ever wondered what draws someone into the world of education? In our latest episode of PBIS: Journey to Genius, we had the pleasure of hosting Tracy Stewart and Travis Morris from Granville Elementary, who revealed to us their heartfelt tales of entering the educational sphere. Tracy's lineage is steeped in teaching tradition, while Travis' path was less direct, yet both are united by a passion for nurturing the next generation. They shared with us the simple, everyday moments that affirm their commitment to their roles, and the profound impact of fostering genuine connections within their school community.
We ventured together into the creative world of Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) and discovered how Granville Elementary's personalized sticker system is making waves. Tracy and Travis detailed the power of acknowledgment through strength-based conversations and goal-setting, demonstrating how these initiatives form building blocks for an inclusive, optimistic school culture. Their blue ace visions are not mere whimsy; they are strategic, serving the students' diverse needs and leading to a comprehensive framework that supports every child's journey.
As Dianne Ferrell and Diane Ruff signed off this episode, we looked back at the influential voices that have shaped PBIS over the past decade and teased future discussions on advanced interventions. We extended our gratitude to our vibrant community of educators and listeners who have taken this journey with us. Thank you for tuning in, and we invite you to become a part of our mission to empower teachers and support students as they grow into their best selves. Don't forget to connect with us on our social channels and join the conversation in empowering the education community.
