In this Supportive School Discipline Webinar Series event, experts provide information on how we can use discretionary discipline practices focused on prevention and early intervention to transform all schools into supportive learning environments for all students (a Multi Tiered System of Supports). Research has demonstrated that the most effective tool to address problem student behavior is to prevent it from occurring in the first place.
