Punitive Discipline Is Burning Out Your Teachers. And It's Not Working for Students Either.
|
Teachers are doing their best with a model that was never designed to actually work. Detentions, behavior charts, suspensions, removal — they manage the moment and create the next crisis. Behavior 360 gives your entire team a different way. Brain-based, compassionate, and practical enough to use in the hardest moments — with the most challenging students. |
Built for PreK–12 educators, paraprofessionals, and school leaders — general ed, special ed, and everyone in between.
Behavior
Created by Dr. Julie Causton & Dr. Kristie Pretti-Frontczak — 50+ years of combined experience, authors of a dozen books, and the leading voices in inclusive behavior support.
A different approach
Behavior Is Communication.
Not Defiance.
Every behavior is a student telling you something. Behavior 360 teaches your team to hear it — and respond in a way that actually helps.
That means understanding the brain science behind behavior, building real skills for the hardest moments, and creating classrooms where students feel safe enough to learn.
Behavior 360 guides your team through three shifts:
- From compliance to connection — understanding why punitive approaches backfire
- From reaction to readiness — building skills for the moment behavior escalates
- From crisis to calm — creating classrooms where students feel safe, seen, and supported
What Your School Looks Like After Behavior 360
- Teachers who respond with skill instead of bracing for impact
- Students who learn to regulate — and come back to learning faster
- Families who trust that their child is safe and supported
And if nothing changes?
- More teachers burning out and leaving
- More students missing learning because behavior wasn't understood
- More families losing trust in what school can do for their child
The good news: this is fixable. And Behavior 360 is how.

FAQs
If we’re already using the Pyramid Model or PBIS, why would we need Behavior 360?
The Pyramid Model and PBIS provide the framework. Behavior 360 helps adults apply those frameworks in real time—especially during moments of escalation.
Behavior 360 strengthens adult understanding of behavior as communication, builds de-escalation and co-regulation skills, and reduces reliance on removal, rewards, or compliance-based responses. It works alongside Pyramid and PBIS by supporting the how, not replacing the what.
