Out Of School Suspension

In the article “School Suspensions: Pros, Cons, and Ways to Improve”, it says a con is that the students don’t receive the days class work and will miss the lessons during class. Hearing someone explain something confusing and complicated will help them remember the correct way. All they get is a written explanation that can get confusing and they will end up doing the work wrong because they couldn’t get the right explanation of what to do. Even though most students do keep up with their work when they get suspensions, others think that it’s like a vacation from school and they don’t do their work on time or don’t do it correctly. The students’ education shouldn’t be affected even if they did break the rules, their lessons and classes are too important to miss that much

Out of school suspensions (OSS) are often enforced with the assumption that students receiving the suspension are less likely to repeat the problem behavior in the future. However, this has been proven to be false. Suspending a student for engaging in a certain behavior does not in fact serve as a deterrent from the behavior but as a deterrent from attending school instead. In actuality, receiving just a single suspension can increase the probability of a student experiencing academic failure, school dropout, and involvement in the juvenile justice system. Knowing this, some educators still believe that for many students, suspension can serve as an effective lesson. One of the greatest concerns that educators and administrators face is the matter of classroom management. It is part of their job to ensure a safe, productive and supportive classroom allowing students to learn and grow to their greatest potential. Though there are several strategies gauged towards managing a classroom, the most severe offences often lead to either in or out of school suspension. Some of the largest concerns faced with out of school suspensions is that they are often ineptly applied, used unfairly against students of color and seemingly ineffective at producing better behavior. Also known as exclusionary discipline, the majority of offenses that led to OSS have not been centered around violence but instead emphasised issues of classroom insubordination and defiance. In some rather extreme cases

Schools are more effective when students feel that they belong and can engage in the learning process. Schools are safer when teachers and administrators have strategies and training to prevent and manage conflicts and misbehavior. A policy to ensure that students are not unfairly at risk for suspension because of their race and have the equal educational opportunities to which they are entitled by federal law will prevent, recognize, and rectify the overuse and inequality of exclusionary discipline.

Do administrators of schools every see the child's? Does suspension increase dropout rates? Is there ever a since of justice for the child? Since schools first came to be they have always suspended students without questioning or reasoning in a comfortable environment.Although school suspension is way for the child to be isolated and think about what they have done, schools should get rid of school suspension because this makes the student feel as though there voice is being heard in the matter, since the student is in a more safe and cozy environment the student will reveal what happened, this will prevent higher dropout and school suspension rates.

A study in Texas shows that of all students who were suspended once, 14% were suspended 10 more times. When a student is suspended it does not help the school, it gets rid of a problem temporarily. What do they do when that problem comes back a week later? They suspend it, again pushing it off for a short period of time. Eventually, these students will dropout because the school didn’t deal with them properly. Yes, if the student did something wrong, they need to be punished, and not just by being forced to say sorry and write a paper. Many schools use what is called ISP for students who misbehave. ISP (Individualized Service Program) is like a prison for students, they can’t talk or sleep, but they still get the work the teacher gives the rest of the class. ISP was designed for students to have that feeling of being suspended, but still having to go to school, it also helps the student not to miss any schoolwork while being punished so the student can continue to grow and learn. After serving time in ISP most students don’t want to go back, and a lot of them don’t. It fixes the problem, and the student is more likely to stay in

One of the causes for this problem is the zero tolerance policy in public schools. Since this rule was first started in the 1990’s it has lead to higher amounts of students being suspended from school. According to the US department of education the number of students suspended from school since 1974 went from 1.7 million to

Firstly, negligence on the schools part following duty, breach of duty, causation, and injury. The school district has in place a set of procedures that mandate a letter home and a phone call to the parents. In this case, only a letter of the suspension was given to go home with the student, which was then thrown away. This is pure incompetency on the part of the staff to fulfill their duty to properly inform the parents of

As a result of exclusionary discipline inequality African American students are 3.5 times more likely than white students to be suspended or expelled and Hispanic students are 1.5 times more likely to be suspended and twice as likely than students without a disability to be suspended. When factoring by disability, 76% of students with learning disabilities and 90.2% of students with emotional behavioral disorders will be suspended at least once, while 37% of students with other disabilities, such as autism will be suspended (Cramer, 2014) Zero-tolerance policies

Students all over the country face the same “zero tolerance policy” as the students here.Students everywhere have heard about a fellow classmate being suspended for a ridiculous reason.Although suspension gets a student's attention suspension should be abolished in our school systems in order to improve dropout rates, improve student's GPA and improve the behavior of the students overall.

On the other hand, I understand that the student was wrong for behaving in such a manner and the school has to have this process in place. But , what are we doing

There is a belief that student’s exposure to a traumatic event will cause more suspensions. Also, black students will be suspended more than white students because of being exposed to a traumatic event.

Evidence relating to the effect of adopted exclusionary behaviour from schools i.e. suspension and expulsion. Have shown to have a negative knock on effect that affects the teaching staff, students, parents and the community at large (Michail, 2011). Additionally, the

School discipline is to ensure that students and the campus staff are safe and peaceful. According to the U.S. Department of Education on Rethinking Discipline (2017), “Teachers and students deserve school environments that are safe, supportive, and conducive to teaching and learning.” The idea is to decrease bad behavior and school violence which will lead to fewer suspensions and expulsions. There are rules and limitations when it comes to student discipline; there are acts in which students can and must be disciplined. For examples, if a student quality’s for special needs some different guidelines protect them under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act’s (IDEA). Furthermore, the Education Code, Section 48900 was implied to discipline students who committed any wrongful doing such as attempting or threatening to physical harm another person. In the case f any wrongfulness, the student is forced to be disciplined by being suspended or expulsed from school.
