The Impact of Restorative Circles on School Connectedness: A Student Perspective
Gabriella Franza
Journal for Leadership and Instruction, v22 n2 p9-12 2023
The COVID-19 school shutdown took students out of the school building and into the virtual classroom. With this, students lost opportunities to connect with their peers and school members. With students reentering the schools, there is a great need for structures built within the school day for community building. Restorative circles are safe spaces created to help students connect with their peers and build community with the guidance of a facilitator. The purpose of this qualitative narrative study was to explore the impact that restorative circles have on school connectedness at the high school level.
