Community Conferencing
A Community Conference is a meeting of people affected by behavior that has caused serious harm.  The goal of the conference is to understand what happened and to create an agreement that will repair the harm and guide future interactions among the participants as needed.  Community conferencing is an effective tool to address incidents which could otherwise result in school suspensions or traditional juvenile justice measures.

Character Education

Character Education is to be incorporated in each school's School Progress Plan.  Bullying and harassment prevention can be addressed through character education efforts.
