Discipline policies and practices are being reviewed for their alignment with SEL. Data have been reviewed to determine if policies and practices have been applied equitably.
The school has identified discipline policies and practices that support SEL and are restorative, instructive, and developmentally appropriate. Data are reviewed frequently to determine if policies and practices have been applied equitably.
Discipline policies and practices promote SEL, including providing opportunities for students to reflect, problem solve, and build positive relationships. These policies and practices take into account students’ developmental stages, cultural backgrounds, and individual differences. Data demonstrates that these practices are used consistently and equitably in the classroom and throughout the school.
How can discipline practices support SEL?
Supportive discipline practices provide developmentally-appropriate opportunities for students to learn, problem solve, and take ownership of their behaviors. In contrast, punitive and exclusionary discipline practices such as suspensions are linked to higher rates of student disengagement, failure, and disruptive behaviors.
