The Teays Valley Educational Foundation recently awarded Teays Valley West Middle School a $2,225 grant to be used to purchase a program called PBIS Rewards.

PBIS stands for Positive Behavior Interventions and Support.

Through this program, students will be recognized for positive behavior and positive choices.

“The Teays Valley West Middle School PBIS team is very thankful to the TVEF for this grant to purchase PBIS Rewards,” said Jennifer Seebauer, librarian. “This program will help our students continue to be respectful, responsible and remarkable Teays Valley students, which are the three PBIS tenants that we encourage at West.”
