From K-8th grade, Youtopia is a perfect complementary tool for schools that have implemented Positive Behavior Intervention Systems, or PBIS. As part of the PBIS system, students are acknowledged for their positive behaviors by teachers with small physical tokens. Usually a ticket or slip of paper, or maybe a rubber bracelet. Those tickets are then collected by students and then used to award prizes. For example some school will put all of the tickets in a big fish bowl, and one ticket is selected to receive a prize. Kids love it and PBIS has had a major impact on elementary and middle schools.

Youtopia takes your PBIS programs and super charges it. Youtopia brings the entire system online; all of the PBIS activities can be clearly defined for parents and students to see. Your student’s acknowledgements will never get lost in the wash again. All of your students success will now be organized and documented in the form of points and badges for the students and parents to see online. Individual classroom teachers have the power to create their own unique activities and badges that they know will engage their students. Who knows the students better than their teacher.

That’s just the start of the power of  Youtopia. Now that all of that data has been collected (what activities have been rewarded most and least, who’s doing great, who needs work, how they’re doing compared to last month, how each classroom does compared to other classroom, how school-wide initiatives are progressing month to month, etc..) detailed reports to be generated by the students, parents, teachers and administrators. Wouldn’t it be nice to share the good things your students are doing with the world? Youtopia takes the execution of PBIS to the next, modern, trackable, and sharable level.
