[quote=Anonymous]Here's my thought as a veteran teacher and parent: Are there some situations where restorative justice makes sense and works? Does it work for some kids? If so, use it then. Are there some situations or kids where they cannot be served at all within the public school system because they are so disruptive or so violent? If so, remove them. Are there other approaches that do not unfairly target minority students or mistreat marginalized students (or any students)? Great, let's use that. We can't go back to simply expelling everyone. And we can't only use RJ. But maybe that's the problem. Maybe it's the when, where and how these approaches are used. Maybe these each have a place and we need to talk more and try new things. But something has to happen because neither the old way nor the new way is helping large numbers of kids.[/quote]
