Student Discipline and Alleviating Criminal Behavior in the Inner City.

Ward, Carolyn M.

Urban Review, v30 n1 p29-48 Mar 1998

Examines the student-discipline policies developed for an inner-city elementary school and grounded in a philosophy of developing individual locus of control. Recommendations for other schools are based on an interactionist theory of student discipline that sees schooling as a process promoting internal control. High expectations for all students are central to these policies. (SLD)
