Board asks that new cell-phone policy be tracked in discipline reporting; presenters emphasize restorative options for recurring behaviors
Summary
Board asked whether the new cell-phone policy incidents will be captured in reporting; PBIS presenters said reporting will change for the policy and emphasized restorative practices and teacher-level data studies to address recurring moderate-contact behaviors.
Board members asked whether incidents under the new cell-phone policy would change the district's reporting. Presenters said they will change reporting and share those data once collected. "With the new cell phone policy, how is your reporting going to change?" a board member asked; a presenter replied, "Absolutely. We're very excited for what that looks like."
Presenters also described using restorative-practice coordinators and teacher-level data studies to address recurring problems, especially moderate physical contact and persistent insubordination in elementary grades. They said most recorded negative peer-to-peer behaviors were level 0 (classroom-managed), and the district will use the data to identify teachers or classrooms with disproportionate referral patterns and craft targeted interventions.
