Student Support and Behavior Intervention Handbook (SSBIH)

About the Handbook

The Student Support and Behavior Intervention Handbook is intended to be instructive, not punitive, and is aimed at resolving conflict, meeting students’ needs, keeping students in school, and addressing the causes of inappropriate behavior.

Supporting Our Students and Building Community

We believe in a healthy and positive school climate and culture so that all students and staff feel a true sense of belonging. We know that the attitudes, beliefs and actions of adults in a school can impact student learning.

SSBIH—A Student's Perspective

We appreciate the hard work and humor of the students at PRP High School in creating these videos to explain the handbook's contents. While the videos are meant to provide humor, we understand behavior incidents are no laughing matter. We are here to support the success of all JCPS students.

Bus Safety

Transportation staff work hard to get kids home safely, and appreciate your support.

See Bus Safety Information here or inside the handbook on page 38.

Levels of Behavior

Behavior level will help determine the consequences when an incident occurs.
