Background:
|
On April 30, 2019, the Milwaukee Board of School Directors referred Resolution 1920R-001 by Directors Miller and O’Halloran regarding restorative practices to the Committee on Student Achievement and School Innovation. The Administration is in agreement with the intent of the resolution and currently offers opportunities for staff to be trained in restorative practices. Administration recognizes that the implementation of restorative practices is a shift in mindset and therefore will require a significant amount of professional development, coaching and support to benefit our students and change school climate. Administration is suggesting minor adjustments to the resolved portions of the resolution as detailed in the attachment. This includes a focus on training of the Board members, centrally assigned staff, school staff, students and community partners who work with our schools. In addition, the Administration is recommending that the Restorative Practice Coaches work in coordination with the Equity Specialist and the Violence Prevention Program to support schools so that our practices and message is consistent.
