More N.C. teachers report threats & attacks by students than nearly every other state; Restorative Justice Practices

More N.C. teachers report threats and attacks by students than in nearly every other state - IndyWeek
 

Kym Martin, Executive Director of the NC Center for Safer Schools, shares excellent leadership facilitating NC leaders in this most important vision of Safer Schools.
 

Thurs., 6-19-2014, Jon Powell, Director of the Juvenile Justice Project, Campbell University Law School, led a well-received modeling of Restorative Justice Practices (RJP) with NCCSS participants.


Jon has been working with Wake County students, families, and staff. WCPSS Board Chair and central office are most supportive of Jon & his RJP work.


FYI:  Restorative Practices: W Philadelphia HS: Principal Saliyah Cruz

W Philadelphia HS was named a“persistently dangerous school” for violence/crime.After Restorative Practices were implemented, students realized they had a voice; they had ownership of the school atmosphere.
