BoQ Critical Element: Effective Procedures for Dealing
with DisciplineCommunication with families occurs as problem
behaviors arise
Families are invited to participate in coordinating interventions between home and school for their child.
Stakeholders from different backgrounds are involved in designing the discipline process to minimize cultural bias

Does the Traditional Approach to Discipline Work?
A Colorado High School with a total attendance of 740 students has 8000+ tardies and absences
In one semester, a middle school gave out 277 three-day out of school suspensions, for a total of 831 days of missed instructional time by those students
Zero Tolerance policy leads to a drill team participant being expelled and an 8th grade student being arrested for writing on a desk
A 4th grade student was pepper-sprayed by police for significantly disrupting the learning environment

Clear, Mutually Exclusive Definitions of Behavior
Come to an agreement of what behaviors “look like” in our environment
Provides a common understanding and accounts for differing tolerance levels
Increases consistency among adults (including family members)What does tardy mean? What’s the difference between a major inappropriate
language violation and a minor inappropriate language violation?
![Page 11: BoQ Critical Element: Effective Procedures for Dealing with Discipline](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5697bf7b1a28abf838c83ae6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Clear, Mutually Exclusive Definitions of Behavior
All problem behaviors are covered and none of the definitions overlap
Consistent definitions make data collection much more accurate and reliable
Encourage shared understanding and responsibility between home and school
The addition of minor problem behaviors assists in the summary of minor infractions
![Page 12: BoQ Critical Element: Effective Procedures for Dealing with Discipline](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5697bf7b1a28abf838c83ae6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Culturally Responsive Definitions
Example:Disrespect: student engages in refusal to follow directions,
talks back and/or delivers socially rude interactions “Refusal to follow directions” – might be due to culturally conditioned
perceptions of what constitutes and does not constitute a command (Delpit, 1992)
“talking back” – might be an expression of a culturally specific communication style (Cartledge & Milburn, 1996)
“socially rude” – varies from culture to culture
Involve stakeholders from different backgrounds to minimize cultural bias

Do you have behavioral definitions?
Do you need to review and revise any definitions of problem behavior? If yes, which ones?
How can you get staff, student and family input on the definitions?
Do the staff, students and families know and consistently use the definitions? If no, how can your team review the definitions with staff, students and families?
Do your behavioral expectations reflect cultural sensitivity?

Why use ODRs in a PBIS school?
Simply too cumbersome to collect all positive recognitions if given
in the 5:1 ratio!

Discipline Process Checklist
What is the process? How do I refer? How do I complete form? What is the purpose of the form? What should I expect to happen when I complete a minor or major incident report? How does it get to office? Do you want to know when to refer to school nurse? Or school counselor? When should I expect to hear back from office? Do we track minor offenses? Is the form different for minors? What is the process for referring minors? At what point are families included in the process?
