Statewide disciplinary trends continue to show that African American and Latino students, and students with identified disabilities and supported with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), continue to be suspended at rates significantly greater than their peers. Through this program, leaders within the district receive training that enables them to help improve the culture and climate within each school community, deepen the social-emotional learning opportunities for students, and offer restorative discipline as an adjunct or, in some cases, an alternative to suspensions.
