MARY ANN WOLF: Making schools safe, supportive environments that prepare students
Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2020 -- The focus on equity and the whole child provides an important lens through which to consider discipline and restorative practices in schools. Each child comes to us in Kindergarten wanting to learn and be successful. To ensure that comes to pass, we must transform our schools into safe, supportive environments that prepare our students for college, career, and citizenship, instead of employing harmful or exclusionary discipline practices in our schools that work against our collective learning goals.
