Psychological and Behavior Team (PBT)The Psychological Team is comprised of a group of individuals who specialize in the evaluation of all students with emotional and behavioral needs. Included on this team are Licensed Specialists in School Psychology and Educational Diagnosticians. Members of this team work closely with students and their families, school staff and other related agencies to provide individualized evaluation services to determine eligibility for special education services. In addition to this, the PBT also provides behavioral consultation services to district campuses to assist with the development of individualized Behavior Intervention Plans. Team members assist in the identification of behavioral goals and with the development of appropriate interventions and positive strategies for students with emotional and behavioral needs. As
with all PISD staff, the PBT continues to research and learn about new
evaluation tools and behavioral strategies through professional development
seminars and conferences to keep up with the most current information
in this field. Members of this team have also been involved in the development
of evaluation tools and procedures used in the process of working with
students in need. Providing district staff training's, and working together
in the process of evaluation is the key to providing the best possible
services and strategies for our students.
