Overview

Eliminate school discipline and classroom management problems with schoolwide restorative justice Washington Post bestseller Hacking School Discipline brought restorative practice to classrooms around the world. The sequel, Hacking School Discipline TOGETHER, is helping all stakeholders--teachers, students, counselors, principals, superintendents, and parents--create a schoolwide restorative justice system that can change the culture of schools around the world. We may feel powerless to have a positive impact on our students and not trust the other adults to do the right thing, rather than confidently addressing student behaviors in ways that help them learn new skills, build better relationships, and learn to be accountable. Enter the Hacking School Discipline sequel Hacking School Discipline TOGETHER, featuring all new content from 40-year teacher, school leader, and restorative justice expert Jeffrey Benson, who provides a roadmap for schoolwide staff unity, compassion, consistency, and restorative practices that do far more than send students to detention and suspension. Hacking School Discipline TOGETHER shows you how to: Fix the chronic structural flaws in routines and practices that make it harder for students to do the right thing. Take positive actions when working with a student who is struggling to behave well. Clarify the role administrators must play in addressing significant misbehaviors. Take the critical steps for integrating a student back into the classroom. Prevent misbehaviors rather than react to them. Understand how important it is for all staff to be pulling in the same direction and how to make that happen. This book uniquely speaks to administrators guiding a school to a culture of restorative practice, to staff members longing to help all students learn from their impulsive decisions, and to teachers creating classrooms that foster responsibility, forgiveness, and accountability.
