African American youth are persistently overrepresented in discipline referrals and suspension rates. This interactive workshop will share the results of a mixed method study designed to analyze African American suspension and focus group data from Florida and Texas. Participants will experience culturally respectful, relevant, and responsive teaching and discipline strategies to assist in reducing the overrepresentation of African American youth in discipline referral and consequences. Culturally responsive leaders can make the difference.
