MSAA Summer Institute featuring:

Seaside Educational Consultant Dr. Curtis Bates

This workshop will explore how Restorative Practice is a fundamental change in how to respond to misbehavior and rule violations and is viewed as an alternative to traditional school discipline. Participants will review the principles of Restorative Practice and how they are designed to gain a better understanding as to what happened, why it happened, and how the damage can be fixed. The restorative approach, within a school setting, attempts to shift the emphasis from managing

behavior to focusing on building relationships. Also, Restorative Circles are a strategy used for building the school s or classroom s community through authentic dialogue coming to an understanding and making things right. SIGN UP HERE
