Alternatives to Suspension and Expulsion: Going Beyond Admiring the Problem to Taking Action
Research in school discipline has consistently documented the lack of efficacy of suspension and expulsion as well as racial or ethnic, special education, and LGBTQ+ disparities in their use. Alternatives to suspension are being advocated across the country. Participants will be exposed to evidence-supported alternatives to suspension or expulsion, which can be adapted to their local context. Strategies for addressing common implementation and evaluation issues will be offered. Hands-on activities and problem-solving case scenarios will be featured throughout the interactive workshop.
Learner Objectives: This workshop will help participants
learn about long-standing research documenting the detrimental impact of suspension and expulsion and the racial or ethnic, special education/disability, and LGBTQ+ disparities in its use so they can advocate for alternatives to suspension in their school districts;
gain an understanding of evidence-supported alternatives to suspension or expulsion; and
apply and adapt alternatives to suspension to their local context, with a focus on the diverse learning needs and cultural background of their student population and the readiness of their schools to implement and evaluate alternatives to suspension and expulsion.
