Transforming School Culture through Restorative Leadership and Equitable Student Discipline Practices
October 16 @ 9:30 am – 10:30 am
Through the Race, Education, and Community Healing (REACH) Network, a collaborative between UCLA CTS and UC Berkeley CREEO, we have brought together LEAs from across the state to better understand how restorative leadership and equitable student discipline practices can address this question. This session offers a broad overview of suspension trends across the state, student discipline frameworks rooted in restorative practices, and practical implementation strategies from district and school leaders driving equitable transformation within their school communities. Panelists will also share insights into the role of restorative leadership as their districts have implemented TK years ahead of universal transitional kindergarten.
