(RED CLAY CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL DISTRICT)

Red Clay Consolidated School District staff will be receiving training from ACLU of Delaware and several other organizations to reduce disproportionate suspension rates among students of color and students with disabilities. District Equity Officer Tawanda Bond says the trainings will likely focus on shifting from “exclusionary” discipline in favor of “restorative practice,” which prompts educators to consider possible trauma, implicit bias and other factors in addressing student behavior.
