About Tribes

Thousands of schools throughout the United States, Canada, Australia and other countries have become Tribes Learning Communities, safe and caring environments in which kids can do well! After years of “fix-it” programs focused on reducing student violence, conflict, drug and alcohol use, absenteeism, poor achievement, etc., educators and parents now agree, creating a positive school or classroom environment is the most effective way to improve behavior and learning. The Tribes TLC® process is the way to do it.
Students achieve because they:

• feel included and appreciated by peers and teachers

• are respected for their different abilities, cultures, gender, interests and dreams

• are actively involved in their own learning

• have positive expectations from others that they will succeed.
