[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with above post that nominal "restorative justice" is nothing like restorative justice as it's supposed to be practiced within communities. These nominal practices can cause harm. PhD psychologist here who worked in community setting with days-long restorative justice practices. Community leaders there were mentored, over time, by First Nations groups[/quote] I absolutely agree that RJ, as it is practiced in our schools, absolutely causes more harm than good. It’s so poorly implemented. I’ve gotten to the point that I feel anger toward the RJ advocates, especially ones who don’t actually work in our schools. They haven’t seen the negative ways students respond to it, and how it can actually reinforce the behaviors it is supposed to mitigate. [/quote] Testify at a BOE meeting. Tell them how RJ, as it's currently implemented, is failing everyone. We need teachers to speak out.[/quote]
