The purpose in adopting the PBIS program is to enhance any existing behavioral programs. All codes of conduct rest upon the application of consequences for inappropriate behaviors. The PBIS systems approach to behavioral modification rests upon the clear and consistent collection of causal facts and other relevant data in order to formulate alternative strategies to effect behavioral change.

At Franklin Academy, the philosophy of PBIS is combined with a strong discipline code to provide appropriate consequences for poor choices and to positively reinforce appropriate behaviors.
