District Response: The Tulsa Public Schools Behavior Response Plan (BRP), in coordination with the Discipline
Review Committee (DRC), provides a scaffolding of services in a Response to Intervention (RTI) design that
incorporates research‐based interventions to support student success. The strategies have been designed to
align with the philosophy and practices of the Positive Behavior Support programs used by many of the District
sites. The goal is to help students in their development as mature, able, knowledgeable and responsible
individuals.
Recent school site changes implemented through Project Schoolhouse have already show positive effects,
particularly in regards to decreasing 6 th grade suspensions. The District will continue to monitor current data
and address as necessary.
