[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think its suspicious that multiple schools were all doing the same exact thing--was this a directive from up above or did they all just spontaneously stumble upon this strategy the same year at the same time? [/quote] "D.C. Public Schools reported that suspensions dropped 40 percent from 11,078 in 2013-2014 to 6,695 in 2015-2016, but some education advocates are questioning whether DCPS is truly doing a better job keeping students in class." This is a numbers game. Schools with high suspension numbers look bad. Therefore, principals are doing one of two things -1) not reprimanding students 2) reprimanding, but not recording it. Imagine a school where you do wrong, but aren't reprimanded for it. It chaotic! And you wonder why teachers are quitting and going to work in other schools/districts. [/quote]
