Background Information:
Talking Points:
Our goal as a district is to first and foremost maintain a productive and safe learning
environment. We are committed to providing appropriate discipline and will suspend when
necessary. We believe we can accomplish our goals by spending more time teaching the
behavior we want to see versus creating an environment of zero tolerance.
Suspensions throughout the country, and even in our district, have been overused and the
data shows disturbing disproportionality among student groups.
We are deepening our integration of PBIS and RtI, which are two proven strategies that
improve behavior and achievement in schools.
Each secondary school has prescriptive interventions and alternative to suspension plans to
provide students with an alternative setting (such as Back on Track Room or Robin Room),
academic intervention, and social-emotional counseling.
We are continuously monitoring the data and listening to the stakeholders. We are
committed to reducing the number of suspensions and removing disproportionality.
