Description
Every day, school district board members, administrators, and staff make critical judgment calls about student misconduct and subsequent discipline. What are the procedural and substantive due process rights that all students must receive for discipline to be upheld by a court or other reviewing body? What kind of notice must be given to the student and the student's parents? What are the most common mistakes school districts make and how do these errors affect subsequent proceedings? Join Christina, Lisa, and Miriam for a timely conversation about what to keep in mind in assessing misconduct, and issuing or reconsidering discipline for all students.
