PAWS Program at Oley Valley Elementary School

The Oley Valley Elementary School (OVES) was recently recognized by the Pennsylvania Positive Behavior Support Network (PBIS) for attaining Universal (Tier 1) Initial Implementation With Fidelity for the school-wide positive behavior interventions and support program (PBIS) at the elementary school. The OVES PBIS program is focused on PAWS Expectations and recognizing the positive contributions of students on a daily basis.

P – Pride in Our School
A – Act Responsibly
W – Work Hard
S – Show Respect

Students earn points on the education app, Class Dojo, as individuals and as a class when meeting or exceeding the PAWS Expectations. Students as well as the whole school earn incentives as they earn Dojo points. The program’s success can be attributed to the PBIS team of staff members who meet throughout the school year and summer to support the program.
