Abstract	Schools are complex communities that play a major role in the social fabric of culture. Effective schools provide access to both good instruction and a social culture that supports engagement, community, and success. Over the past 10 years, more than 11,000 elementary, middle level, and high schools have adopted schoolwide positive behavior support (SWPBS) as a framework for improving their social and academic outcomes. SWPBS is a multitiered approach for building a schoolwide social culture that enables students to succeed academically and to build skills for the rest of their lives. High schools implementing this approach have improved attendance, reduced discipline referrals, and improved academic engagement. Although the demands of the schools' different contexts and cultures have led to innovative strategies for achieving the core features of SWPBS, a central component of successful implementation has been the active engagement of the principal. The principal has the role of establishing the learning climate, hiring and supporting personnel, and modeling instructional leadership. The principal can use the SWPBS framework to establish a positive school climate and support students and staff members. Investing in the social culture of a high school through implementation of SWPBS is one proven approach for building the predictable, consistent, positive, and safe setting that will increase student academic engagement and lead to improved performance and graduation rates.
