Hacking School Discipline - Humanizing our Discipline with Restorative Practices

This session from the co-author of Hacking School Discipline - Nathan Maynard, will focus on setting the stage for creating a learning environment around belonging and restorative practices. Participants will be given strategies for how to look at behavior as a form of communication and focusing on building empathy among students. Also, understanding how restorative practices supports students through the discipline processes. The need for connection, belonging, and community has never been stronger. Yet schools often feel disconnected from their communities, which can lead to isolation and disconnection for students. How do we ensure that our students feel connected to their school community? In this session, participants will learn about ways to build relationships with students through intentional, proactive relationship-building tools. They will also explore ways that they can support students' social-emotional well-being.
