St. Augustine School Recognized With Three Prestigious PBIS Badges for 2023-2024

We are thrilled to announce that St. Augustine Catholic School has been awarded three Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) badges for our exceptional efforts during the 2023-2024 school year. These badges highlight our commitment to creating a positive and supportive learning environment for all students. The badges we received are:

• The Power of Teaching Award
• Our Classroom Our Community Award
• The Instruction & Restorative Relationships Award

These accolades are a testament to the hard work and dedication of our staff, students, and families in fostering a school culture that prioritizes both academic success and the development of strong, supportive relationships.

PBIS Maryland was established in 1999 through a collaborative partnership between the Maryland State Department of Education, Johns Hopkins University, Sheppard Pratt, and local educational systems. The primary goal of PBIS is to support schools in adopting and sustaining a multi-tiered framework that encourages the use of evidence-based practices to enhance the success of all students. It focuses on improving student social, emotional, behavioral, and mental health wellbeing through a structured system of support.

Since the 2022-2023 school year, schools across Maryland, including St. Augustine, have continued to leverage the PBIS framework to create more inclusive, supportive, and academically enriching environments. The recognition we’ve received with these badges underscores our ongoing dedication to the PBIS mission and its impact on our school community.

For over 160 years, St. Augustine Catholic School has provided a faith-based, academically rigorous education to PreK-3 through Grade 8 students. Our mission is to inspire intellectual discovery, imagination, and service to others while nurturing each student’s growth in faith. Our students consistently outperform national norms, with 8th-grade graduates excelling in college-prep Catholic high schools. We are proud to offer an environment where every child can grow into a servant leader, grounded in academic excellence and Christian values.

Come and experience the difference at St. Augustine Catholic School, where all are welcome!

We celebrate this PBIS recognition and remain committed to continuing our journey of fostering a supportive and nurturing environment for all students.
