[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How and why did "accountability," "consequences" and "discipline" become bad words in our school system? Parents didn't ask for this.[/quote] Because of equity. Too many minority students were in detention or suspended.[/quote] Clarification: too many minority students were in detention or suspended for things white students did but were not given detention or suspension.[/quote] In my experience as a teacher, a kid can be causing low/mid level trouble all over the school. They then cross a line that requires consideration for suspension. I feel the behavior that leads up to the culminating event of the suspension is often lost in the data. So, I have a bit of mistrust when things are boiled down to pure referral and suspension data without and context.[/quote]
