Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year.  My name is Dorothy Bean-Culley.  I am the Behavior Intervention Specialist at Yeatman Liddell College Preparatory Middle School.  I am excited about the new school year.

This year, our school will continue implementing Positive Behavior Intervention Support (PBIS).

What is PBIS? 

PBIS is a proactive, team-based framework for creating and sustaining safe and effective schools with emphasis being placed on prevention of problem behavior and development of pro-social skills.  School-wide PBIS increases the capacity of schools to educate all scholars utilizing research-based school-wide, classroom and individualized interventions.

The ultimate goal of PBIS is to increase academic performance, decrease problem behavior, increase safety and establish a positive school culture and climate that is conducive to learning.

Our PBIS model will focus on three areas.  These areas are:

• Being Respectful
• Being Responsible
• Being Safe

We encourage you as a parent/guardian to join the Yeatman Liddell family as we work together to prepare our scholars for their successful future.

If you should have any questions or concerns, I may be reached at the telephone number listed above or via email dorothy.culley@slps.org

Sincerely,

 Dorothy Culley, Behavior Intervention Specialist
