Conscious Discipline with Excellence

According to the ACLU, the school to prison pipeline is “a disturbing national trend wherein youth are funneled out of public schools and into the juvenile and criminal legal systems. Many of these youth are Black or Brown, have disabilities, or histories of poverty, abuse, or neglect, and would benefit from additional support and resources. Instead, they are isolated, punished, and pushed out.” This session provides a rich context using Dr. Valerie Parker’s research on the topic, videos, stories and artifacts that showcase the development of authentic relationships and other practical strategies that set students on a path to success, rather than into the criminal justice system.
