Check-In/Check-Out Behavior Intervention & PBIS

PBIS initiatives help to improve school culture and climate by teaching and reinforcing positive behaviors. The majority of students in any given school will not need supports beyond Tier 1. However, for the roughly 15% of students who need behavior intervention support beyond the supports of Tier 1 PBIS implementation, there is Tier 2. The Check-In/Check-Out behavior intervention is a commonly used option for behavior supports within Tier 2.Tier 2 interventions provide additional support for students who need more support to meet their goals socially, emotionally, and/or academically. The objective of Tier 2 is to provide students with the tools to self-govern, allowing them to move back into to Tier 1. There are a number of interventions at this level to assist in that goal. Because Tier 2 interventions apply to a subset of students overall, each intervention can be personalized to each student’s needs. The Check-In/Check-Out behavior intervention is one such customizable tactic.

Check-In/Check-Out in PBIS

As a Tier 2 intervention in PBIS, Check-In/Check-Out (CICO) can give students a boost and allow them to meet behavioral goals that can lead them back to Tier 1. Check-In/Check-Out intervention forms can be customized to reflect behaviors that need additional focus. Teachers provide feedback to the student on these behaviors throughout the day.

Reasons to use CICO in your PBIS implementation:

  • Provides structure in a student’s day, Creates accountability, Provides teacher feedback to student and parents, Creates internal motivation, Improves student behavior, Increases academic success, Creates a stronger home-school connection
