@JaredSmithPhD Such an amazing book! A must read for any school leader looking for strategies that tie all pieces together for our work in education and life!

Proactive strategy- community building circles. Reactive/restore relationships strategy - repair the harm circles.

Question #4 - When kids push us away, we need to keep pulling them towards us! We can't lose even one child! What are your go-to strategies to improve their behaviors AND maintain positive relationships? #TLAP #DisciplineWin

[Dr. Andy Jacks @_AndyJacks]

Sometimes kids just need a break. Not a reprimand. Not a phone call home. Not a 'consequence' for their actions. Just a break. We've all been there and appreciate it when others extended us that same grace and patience, too. #DisciplineWin

Just finished this amazing book! Combines everything that truly matters for creating a school environment that students and staff love to attend everyday! @JoeBrummer

[Joe Brummer @JoeBrummer]

I wrote this book because I believe every kid could be attending school w/o suffering needlessly. Punishment, public shaming, and other forms of power-over relationships teach children that power-over is acceptable despite the damages. We can do better! https://t.co/Zd75vtDnpO

[Keith Ruffolo @KeithRuffolo]

It was great to be able tell our school’s story that led up to the Blue Ribbon Recognition for Exemplary Gap Closing! Thank you @AWSALeaders1 @AWSAJim @joeschroeder23 !
