[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s because they don’t suspend kids any more. This used to be an automatic suspension.[/quote]

I’m gettting jeered at in another thread for defending my DS’s school’s high suspension rate. Fights there happen but it’s rare and they are broken up immediately and kids suspended. They do not f around. As a result the school is relatively very calm. [/quote]

PP here. Our newish middle school principal brags that he lowered the suspension rate by a lot. It’s because he simply doesn’t suspend people, not because behavior has improved.[/quote]

PP. Our MS principal is unflinching about discipline - and my kid has been suspended! Also zero phones allowed. I’m wondering when some busy body will  try to force the school to lower suspension rates.

Most of the suspensions are in-school, which works because the kids are bored and they are also forced to do some school work. It definitely helped my kid straighten up. [/quote]

I'm a MS teacher and would love the name of this school! We have fights often, usually in the bathrooms and arranged by social media. Our admin loves to brag about our lowered suspension rate but it's not because behaviors have improved.[/quote]

It’s a DCPS school people on here enjoy bashing because they think it is a “bad” school, but it has a terrific admin staff. One funny thing about DCPS is that they all do things their own way - which in the right hands can be great![/quote]
