Alex Trusdell- founder of Adaptive Design Association, NYC
"Our purpose is to instigate a revolutionary shift, one where we reject barriers and segregation and choose instead to imagine and build custom adaptations; where we share designs and stories; and where we respond to difference and disability, not with fear or neglect, but with solidarity and love.”

S2 E. 6 Discipline Part 3: (the last one, we promise!)

samedi 16 octobre 2021 • Durée 49:55

MA General Laws Regarding School Discipline

The Big Three (the weapons and drugs are combined in section a - FYI) ....

"Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, all student handbooks shall contain the following provisions:

(a) Any student who is found on school premises or at school-sponsored or school-related events, including athletic games, in possession of a dangerous weapon, including, but not limited to, a gun or a knife; or a controlled substance as defined in chapter ninety-four C, including, but not limited to, marijuana, cocaine, and heroin, may be subject to expulsion from the school or school district by the principal.

(b) Any student who assaults a principal, assistant principal, teacher, teacher's aide or other educational staff on school premises or at school-sponsored or school-related events, including athletic games, may be subject to expulsion from the school or school district by the principal."

Alternatives to Suspension (thanks to PBISworld.com for their references)

Alternatives To Suspension

Why should I do it:

Suspending kids is very unproductive for academics
Some kids get suspended on purpose to get out of work or away from something they do not want to cope or deal with
Suspensions are not an effective deterrent for many kids, who do not see it as a significant consequence or negative stimulus
Providing alternatives to suspensions can be much more effective in getting students’ behavior to change
There are many alternatives that motivate students better than suspending them

When should I do it:

When a student gets into trouble and suspended frequently
When a student is trying to get suspended on purpose or to get out of something
When students really need the instruction but a consequence or discipline is warranted
When suspensions do not seem to be doing anything and are ineffective

How do I do it:
