[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]RJ is not supposed to be replacement for consequences like suspensions. However, that it what is has been turned into to allow schools to claim they have reduced disparities in suspensions. That is why it has such a negative reaction around here. That said, there are a lot of good things that can come out of RJ, that are very quiet. The negative experiences get a far bigger reaction, usually due to poor implementation or put on students who are obviously repeat offenders and don't buy into RJ.[/quote] Even though there can be positive outcomes, what ratio of good to bad experiences is acceptable? I think even a 2:1 ratio wouldn't be enough. You need to make very few mistakes if you can potentially retraumatize victims. Most people are not okay with hurting the victims even more, especially parents.[/quote]
