Robert Morris promotes a school wide Positive Behavior Intervention System (P.B.I.S.) called "Bee" Successful. Students commit to always being respectful, responsible, safe, and prepared. Monthly and weekly rewards are earned by students who maintain values of our Behaviors for Success. How is the rating for School Incidents calculated? This rating represents the reportable incident count per 100 students. Reported suspensions and expulsions are not factored into the rating for School Incidents. Learn more about GPS ratings methodology here.

Reported Incidents	Reported Suspensions	Reported Expulsions

This data reflects the total number of incidents, suspensions, and expulsions per 100 students reported by the school to the Pennsylvania Department of Education. To view a reportable incident report for a particular public school, see the Pennsylvania Safe Schools Reports. Data for private schools are derived from similar reports submitted directly to GreatPhillySchools.
