NEXT LEVEL PBIS - Is your school ready to take your PBIS to the next level? Join a Cohort this Fall or Spring to prepare your PBIS team to implement Tier 2 with Fidelity.

Connect Leadership Community is SESC’s regional support network for school and district leaders, including new and experienced principals, aspiring principals, curriculum and instructional leaders, and superintendents. This community will focus on timely and relevant leadership topics such as school culture and climate, operational and organizational systems, and leadership development. SESC will facilitate meaningful discussions among principals and school leaders across the SESC region, providing opportunities to share successes, reflect on challenges, and collaborate with peers. Participants may earn 2 hours of Certified Evaluation Update credit during each of the sessions.
Join us for an engaging, solutions-focused session designed to help schools reduce suspensions, re-engage students, and strengthen school climate. You’ll learn proven alternatives to suspension that not only cut down on discipline referrals but also reduce the administrative workload tied to suspension reporting. Discover how restorative practices, structured accountability projects, and targeted Tier 3 interventions can boost family and community buy-in, improve positive climate data for state reporting, and address chronic absenteeism. Participants will leave with ready-to-use Structured Day and Accountability Project templates, as well as practical de-escalation strategies that align discipline practices with the Kentucky MTSS framework. Ongoing follow-up coaching and virtual check-ins will ensure you have the support needed to successfully implement these strategies in your school.
