Background:
|
In an effort to support the social, emotional and behavioral needs of all students, ACPS schools implement a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS). This multi-tiered behavioral system of support includes Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) which is a framework that includes consistent schoolwide practices and intervention strategies to encourage positive student behavior and to create and maintain positive learning environments for students and staff. Restorative Practices (RP) are a part of this framework and system of support. Restorative Practices are based on the principles of Restorative Justice that emphasize the importance of positive relationships as central to building community, and involve processes that restore relationships when harm has occurred. In an effort to support the development of a positive community, T.C. Williams High School has been implementing RP at two grade levels and with the International Academy.
