Don't Suspend Me!: An Alternative Discipline Toolkit

Authors - Jessica Hannigan and John Hannigan

Changes in current discipline laws and regulations, a continued rise of disproportionality in discipline in schools, and the push for schools to provide discipline that works are the reasons behind the development of this book. Don't Suspend Me! is meant to help teachers and administrators use alternative discipline methods designed for long term change of behavior for students in trouble. Filled with example discipline incidents and the appropriate responses and interventions to help change behavior of the students, it provides a resource for administrators and educators to use instead of resorting to suspensions as the only method of response. Both authors have been administrators in schools where they were in charge of discipline. Through their effective application of addressing discipline similar to academics, many other administrators and key stakeholders at schools have and continue to rely on their expertise in providing effective discipline rather than just resorting to suspensions.

Through their work of consulting with and supporting other administrators and schools, it is evident that there is a high demand and need for learning how to shift from traditional discipline methods to doing alternative discipline that works. It has become clear that administrators and educators need a toolkit or handbook as a guide to help them implement this form of discipline in their schools. The book will help educators not only comply with new legal requirements, but also do what is best for students for the long term.
