Boise-Eliot/Humboldt School has a comprehensive school climate plan.

School Climate Overview

School Climate encompasses culturally relevant Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS), restorative practices and schoolwide transformative social-emotional learning opportunities for all students.  Racial equity and social justice are woven into all aspects of school climate to ensure that all students experience a sense of belonging and have a positive school experience. 

Multi-Tiered System of Support

School climate is an essential component of the Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) framework.  MTSS is a proactive, data-driven practice used at Portland Public Schools to support all students. It uses evidence-based instruction, intervention and assessment practices to ensure that every student receives the appropriate level of support based on their level of need.  Within an MTSS structure, all students receive sustaining universal supports (Tier I). Additional support is provided for students that need it through targeted  interventions (Tier II), and individualized interventions (Tier III). These tiered academic and behavioral interventions help eliminate barriers to learning and enable every student to successfully reach their full potential.
