Good news re discipline in our district. I just heard that they are going to jettison the zero tolerance policy.

Halleluja!

I think I posted this before. The ACLU talking points on the school to prison pipeline. It's old but, unfortunately, it still describes what is happening. http://www.aclu.org/racial-justice/s...talking-points

Did anyone see the PBS show last night called Dropout Nation. I haven't yet. It's online now. I am a little afraid to. I heard an excerpt on the radio, and it sounded too obvious to be interesting.

Having been a teacher in so-called drop out factories for five of my seven years of teaching in California, I am kind of sensitive on the subject.
