Our guest this week is Robert Brown, a researcher on the Canadian study Redefining Risk: Human rights and elementary school factors predicting post-secondary access. Look for these risk indicators early:A single year of elementary education with 10% absenteeism rate or higher. A suspension for an elementary student Attending an aggregated special needs classroom.
Restorative practices suggestions:Look at student absenteeism data as an indicator. The earlier you look at this data the better. Using the attendance data as an indicator, look into the story behind the data to address the reasons for absenteeism.
