Strategies address misconduct, keep students in school
New resources on Ohio School Discipline and Alternatives to Discipline are now available. Each provides proactive strategies to address and decrease student misconduct while keeping students in the learning environment.
Suspension and expulsion lead to gaps in learning and contribute to chronic absenteeism. By keeping students in their learning environments, schools increase engagement and support Ohio's pledge to cut chronic absenteeism. Alternatives to discipline get to the root cause of behavior, reinforce prosocial behaviors, and promote safety.
