The Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) team at GOAL Digital Academy has launched an initiative schoolwide to engage students at all academic levels. GOAL has recently refocused on PBIS as a result of two influences: ODE Special Education Department’s emphasis on PBIS for all special education students and an Ohio School Wellness Initiative Pilot School Grant.
Tier One supports are those that are available to every enrolled student and their families. Current incentives include “GOAL Gear” (T-shirts, hoodies, sweats, hats, gloves, backpacks and water bottles) for assignment and attendance completion, year-long lab events, clubs, group work, online office hours, live lessons, and virtual sessions for academics, guidance, mentoring and therapy.
The PBIS team has been created to guide, plan and implement additional efforts. GOAL’s theme and slogan “Be Kind, Be Engaged, Take Action” will be echoed throughout the marketing strategy and encourage students to choose integrity in everything they do by making smart choices, working hard, and doing the right thing, no matter what. Each learning lab has been provided with posters, implementation videos for online and in-person use, and bracelets with the tag slogan have been distributed for staff members to give out when they have observed a student engaging in positive behaviors.
The team has implemented a “Student of the Month Program” in which elementary, middle and high school students are recognized for behavioral achievements that match the PBIS initiative, not just for grades or attendance. These students are nominated by staff members.
In addition, Tier 2 supports are being increased with the development of a Student Assistance Program (SAP) to increase student wellness with the implementation of a universal Mental Health and Wellness Screening in which students will be referred for additional evaluation, interventions and supports.

A team of physical therapists from OhioHealth recently visited Richland Academy of the Arts to offer free Functional Movement Screenings (FMS) to higher level dancers that participate in programs at the Academy.
The Functional Movement Screen offers an analysis of an individual’s movement patterns, strength, and flexibility. Each dancer was offered a customized plan and assessment on ways to improve their capabilities within each of these areas. The screenings offered Richland Academy’s dancers an educational opportunity to learn more about their bodies and how to properly work through training.
“The FMS analysis was very educational for our dancers who train like professional athletes,” says Erin Wolford, dance instructor at Richland Academy.
