“This program helped to support our school wide PBIS model and the classroom management strategies I used within my own classroom.” – Karin Barone M.A. Ed; NBCT

BNICE with Chris French is NOT another new program for your school. It's designed to build and expand upon your current character development curriculum through a program centered on love and inclusion. If none is in place, we can help you start one that not only has the buy-in from students and teachers, but is also sustainable. BNICE is already using the statewide systems in place for the positive growth of your students while providing existing and practical funding options. 

Let it help your school with the character education of your students so your teachers can focus on teaching.

Same Guidelines. Positive Results.

Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports

BNICE runs in tandem with Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS). It focuses on the PBIS proactive approach to establishing the behavioral supports and social culture needed for all students in a school to achieve social, emotional and academic success.

Attention is focused on creating and sustaining primary (school-wide), secondary (classroom), and tertiary (individual) systems of support that improve lifestyle results (personal, health, social, family, recreation) for all youth by making targeted misbehavior less effective, efficient, and relevant, and desired behavior more functional.

BNICE is not anti-bullying as much as it is pro-friend.
