Abstract:
|
|
In response to school violence, most schools in the US have adopted increasingly punitive disciplinary policies. However,
some schools have embraced restorative justice practices. This article explores the implementation of these practices in
school communities in Minnesota, Colorado, and Pennsylvania, examining how school communities can make use of this approach
to address drug and alcohol problems and how this approach may offer an alternative to zero-tolerance policies.
