This one-day conference will explore the issue of school discipline. In January 2014, the Obama administration issued guidelines calling for
an end to zero-tolerance policies in schools across the nation. Speakers will discuss the changing landscape of school discipline, including achievements and challenges in implementing new school practices.
This conference will also focus on how reform efforts impact both the school-to-prison pipeline and discipline in charter schools.
