Five years ago, our district shifted from an approach to student behavior that relied heavily on punishment to one rooted in teaching and learning. The approach of our Behavior Education Plan aims to reduce exclusionary practices and establish a more progressive approach to discipline – one that helps students learn positive behaviors, repair harm when negative behavior occurs, and keep our students in classrooms where they can learn.
Throughout this school year, we have been working with students, staff, families and community members to improve the Behavior Education Plan. In this episode, you'll get an update on that process.
