WEBINAR
Our webinar series focused on addressing disproportionalities in discipline will continue next week with webinar 2. The series is focused on managing effective data conversations, assessing inclusion models, working toward cultural and linguistic competence, addressing implicit bias, and conducting root cause analyses. Hosted in collaboration with the Illinois State Board of Education and the Midwest Comprehensive Center, the next webinar in the series will take place on Wednesday, January 30, 2019, at 3 p.m.
Learn how the Addressing the Root Causes of Disparities in School Discipline Guidebook, produced by the National Center on Safe Supportive Learning Environments, can assist with school district accountability and improvement efforts. The guidebook includes tools to help you assess and systematically address disparities in school discipline. The webinar series will provide an overview of the guidebook and opportunities for you to look at your data and apply the guidebook’s tools. The webinar series covers the following topics:
- Webinar 1 took place on January 16 at 3-4:30 p.m.
- Webinar 2 will cover conducting root cause analyses. Specifically, it will focus on how to leverage the results of the initial data review to identify issues’ root causes via courageous conversations. The webinar will then consider how to discuss possible causes and explanations for data trends, collect qualitative data via focus groups and interviews, and conduct the root cause analysis itself. Webinar 2 will take place on January 30 at 3-4:30 p.m.
- Webinar 3 will focus on planning discipline improvements based on the analyses of data and root causes. It will include sharing findings, developing and implementing an action plan, and honing in on common issues often revealed by the data analyses like building inclusive models of behavior and addressing trauma. Webinar 3 will take place on February 13 at 3-4:30 p.m.
- Webinar 4 will discuss measuring the action plan, including monitoring as the plan progresses. Webinar 4 will take place on February 27 at 3:-4:30 p.m.
Recommended participants include district and school administrators, leadership teams, counselors, deans, and any educators interested in supporting this conversation in their schools. Attendees are welcome to join individually or with team members.
