In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach explores the tension between restorative and traditional school discipline, asking whether classrooms have become too forgiving. Drawing on biblical principles, he argues that discipline is an act of love, necessary for protecting the innocent, upholding authority, and cultivating peace. Rather than avoiding conflict, Pastor Zach encourages a corrective approach that forms character and fosters long-term societal health.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

We talked about his new book, “ Suspended Futures: Transforming Racial Inequities in School Discipline.” The book focuses on prevalence of exclusionary discipline in schools, particularly among Black students, who are twice as likely to be suspended. The book is eye-opening and hopeful, as its full of strategies for making classroom discipline more equitable.In our discussion, Richard breaks down what the research on school discipline disparities says and why he started researching the subject in the first place. He also explains why educators need to be involved in fixing these issues.

Teachers used to discipline in the worst ways back in the day.

For this episode, we interviewed a seasoned public high school teacher who raised the question of what exactly IS or SHOULD BE our expectation of safety on school campuses where we send our children for 7-8 hours a day. Schools of today do not look like the ones you as a parent may remember even 10-15 years ago. If you don't yet have school-aged children, this may well be a factor when deciding where and how to educate your kids. **warning: some content may not be appropriate with young listeners in the room** Check out our website for stats & more in-depth articles about this subject. https://projects.sun-sentinel.com/teenage-time-bombs/how-schools-manage-violent-kids/

What if the key to better school counseling was learning from parenting styles? In this  episode, I peel back the layers of school counseling, discipline, and classroom management by drawing parallels with the four parenting styles - uninvolved, permissive, authoritarian, and authoritative.

During President Obama's second term, the U.S. Education Department began sharing studies indicating that black students were disciplined at higher rates than their white peers. These data were viewed as evidence of racial bias, and, in 2014, the Education and Justice Departments jointly published a resource package to help American schools “…promote fair and effective disciplinary practices that will make schools safe, supportive, and inclusive for all students,” (DOJ). Supporters applauded these steps from the federal government saying they reduced schools' racial disparities in disciplinary decisions thereby curtailing the “school-to-prison pipeline.” Critics countered that the guidance misstated federal civil rights law, encouraged racial discrimination in the allocation of school discipline to produce demographic parity, and left classrooms less functional. The 2014 resource package was ultimately rescinded in 2018 under the Trump Administration, only to be largely restored by the Biden Administration. In May 2023, the Education and Justice Departments published a “Resource on Confronting Racial Discrimination in Student Discipline.”What is the best path forward for appropriate and meaningful disciplinary decision making in American schools? How will our school children be best served? What does the evidence really show about race and school discipline?

In this episode, Lisa and Scotti discuss:Why many students' struggles appear in high school and after, rather than in younger grades. Where families can start when their student is struggling. Opportunities outside of high school for students to find success quickly and boost confidence. Collaborative problem-solving with students and educators for student success. Key Takeaways: Every student finds success on their own timeline.As a parent, your emotions do not matter in your child's struggle. Your child is smart and has their own strengths and has their own path. It may look different from your path or what you want for them. Lead with and lean into your student's strengths when talking about struggles. Learning does not equal classroom learning. That is only one path of learning and there is more than one path to thriving and career success.  “I think that a different kind of learning can be very, very valuable, especially for kids who struggle in school, because they often feel very unsuccessful, and not confident in their ability to learn and grow. To give them an opportunity that better fits their learning style or their interests is a place where they can shine and grow in their own way.” – Scotti WeintraubAbout Scotti Weintraub: Scotti Weintraub has dedicated more than 17 years to supporting other parents. She's an accomplished community organizer and presenter who now specializes in helping other parents find the knowledge and resources they need to help their kids succeed when they're struggling at school.

On this West Virginia Morning, students from poor families are more likely to be suspended from school for bad behavior, and data from West Virginia reflects this national trend. We share an excerpt from our latest episode of Us & Them, where host Trey Kay talks with a Yale University researcher about tailored school discipline strategies. The post School Discipline Strategies And Ohio Community Grieves Demolished Power Plant, This West Virginia Morning appeared first on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.

Across the nation, students of color and those from poor families are more likely to be suspended from school and data from West Virginia reflects this national trend. In fact, research shows when a teacher thinks a student of color is misbehaving on purpose, they're more likely to get suspended or expelled. Missing just two days of school each month makes a student less likely to graduate which has a big impact on their prospects for the future. On this episode of Us & Them, host Trey Kay looks at discipline disparities in our schools - a new West Virginia law designed to get tough on misbehaving students - and the way one alternative Kanawha County school gives students the support to recover.

In this episode Lisa and Hanna discuss:Categories of student misconduct from minor to major.The evolution of misconduct by students (and how COVID rapidly changed some of those bad decisions). Your teen's obligation to disclose misconduct during the college admissions process (or not).How your student can tell the truth, explain their story, and understand how colleges will perceive misconduct on applications. Key Takeaways: Young people will find boundaries to push against and they will test those boundaries, even if they're physically under their parent's watch. This is normal and natural.Students should have a wider and deeper set of college options as they build their college list if misconduct has been an issue.On new campus visits, encourage students to look at their likely list and to be more open-minded when they may be harder for the college to admit. The most important thing when writing admissions essays or applications is telling the truth. There is no such thing as the whole truth, but don't try and hide the information. Expulsion does not need to be the end of anybody's education. There are many alternate paths forward. Any high school decision will never be the end of a student's life or education.“If there is any perception that you're blaming third parties for bad choices that you made, that is a very, very bad impression to leave. This is about you taking ownership for your decisions.” – Hanna StotlandAbout Hanna Stotland: Hanna Stotland, JD flunked out of high school, got a G.E.D., and went on to graduate from Harvard College and Harvard Law School. For 24 years, she has served students facing the hardest college and law school admissions problems: six of the “Varsity Blues” families; hundreds of students accused of sexual misconduct; would-be students emerging from prison; even a victim of the Sarah Lawrence cult. The last two years produced an explosion of novel cases involving academic dishonesty during remote learning, misuse of social media, and violation of Covid protocols. She has advised countless students making serious character & fitness disclosures on both law school and bar applications. From 2008-2013, she was a career counselor for law students at Northwestern University School of Law and at Harvard Law School. She frequently serves as an expert witness in admissions-related litigation. Her recent professional presentations include conferences of the Independent Educational Consultants Association, the Higher Education Consultants Association, ten regional ACACs, and Families Advocating for Campus Equality.

Aaron Kupchik returns to Talking About Kids to discuss his new research on the origins of contemporary school discipline practices. Aaron is a Professor of Sociology and Criminal Justice at the University of Delaware and the author of numerous articles and books, including the award-winning Judging Juveniles: Prosecuting Adolescents in Adult and Juvenile Courts and Homeroom Security: School Discipline in an Age of Fear. When I initially invited Aaron back to provide an update on school violence, Aaron replied, “I don't study school violence. I look at the crappy things adults do because of an irrational fear of school violence,” which is why we like him.
