Make Students Part of the Solution, Not the Problem
Gardner, Trevor
Phi Delta Kappan, v96 n2 p8-12 Oct 2014
A California high school develops a Student Justice Panel to hear student concerns about violations of the student code, providing students with a way to not just have a voice but to effect change in how students are disciplined. Restorative justice gives students a feeling of fairness and responsibility for appropriate behavior. Restorative justice shifts the power dynamic to enable students to not just have a voice but to effect change.
