Trauma-informed practices and applied educational neuroscience support all students. Our bodies hold onto trauma and we show trauma in many different ways. Many of our students come to us with not only specific needs, but having experienced significant trauma as well. PBIS is for all students and needs to be implemented through a trauma-informed, all-inclusive lens at each tier.
