Springfield Public Schools is proud to be a leader in adopting and implementing Positive Behavior Supports (PBS) to enhance the success of Springfield’s children. We are committed to providing our students the academic and social-behavioral skills they need in order to be successful in life. PBS is an important part of achieving that goal. The commitment to supporting our students through PBS is reflected in that fact that Springfield has a full-time PBS Coordinator to support the educators who are doing the day-to-day work with our students.

Thanks to the visionary leadership of our Superintendent, Dr. Nancy Golden, and the committed leadership and skillful grant management of Special Programs Director, Dr. Keith Hollenbeck, Springfield Public Schools has become an exemplar of "best practices" in district support for PBS.

Springfield is also a proud sponsor of the Oregon PBS Network Annual Conference on Positive Behavior Support, and our PBS Coordinator is a founding member of the Oregon PBS Network.
