Classroom Management

Windsor Elementary follows School-Wide Positive Behavior Supports, which provides positive reinforcement for appropriate behaviors. Negative behaviors will still have consequences, but we strive to focus on what students are doing “right” rather than what they are doing “wrong.”

You can find more information about our school-wide expectations in our Student Handbook, our SW-PBS Brochure, and on our school website.
