More Than a Behavior Program

Imagine students enjoying their classrooms. Imagine  teachers wanting to stay. Imagine leaders  meeting their strategic goals. 

For over 25 years, Conscious Discipline makes this a reality for districts. Our professional learning programs operate onsite, with 24/7 support in a true, long-term partnership with educators, leaders, and families across the district. These implementations are possible, because we have been doing this with thousands of districts at scale.  

You will see an impact in Year 1 of implementation across metrics like:

  • Teacher Retention
  • Staff Confidence
  • Behavior Disruptions
  • School Culture
What is Conscious Discipline?

“Conscious Discipline is a transformative approach to classroom management and social-emotional learning that prioritizes connection, self-regulation, and problem-solving over traditional punitive methods. I highly recommend Conscious Discipline to colleagues and other school districts because it creates a safe and supportive learning environment where children and adults develop essential life skills such as emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, and self-regulation.”

  • Consistency across classrooms through shared language + structures
  • Integrates into what you already do - and enhances it
Without Conscious Discipline
  • Rewards and punishments that just don't work
  • Put the challenges onto the students needing to change
  • Inconsistent approaches to behavior and staff development
  • Initiative overwhelm and educator burnout​

"The research/science behind the program help create lasting improvements. It has helped our program start seeing behaviors in a different way and helped us start to improve ourselves to help students better."
Doniphan-Trumbell Public School
"Although CD skills can be labeled as mindfulness or other, CD is research proven brain science and a comprehensive program that is easier to train teachers and staff."
Oshkosh Public Schools
"I think CD has been one of the most influential practices in helping our teachers understand that our kids are people, our families are people. And it has been especially helpful for new teachers in our corporation as far as not burning out and being able to provide themselves with self care."
Tippecanoe School Corporation
"Families feel the difference. Conversations are calmer, partnerships are stronger, and trust has deepened across our program."
