Restorative Practices
The MSD of Lawrence Township believes in the power of restorative practices to build strong, supportive communities within our schools. Restorative practices focus on repairing harm, building relationships, and promoting a sense of responsibility and accountability. By embracing these principles, we aim to create school cultures that encourages open communication, empathy, and understanding. District staff are going through Restorative Practices training in partnership with the Peace Learning Center, learning to actively incorporate restorative approaches into daily interactions and conflict resolution processes, ensuring that each student feels valued and heard.
Recently, a parent engagement program was held, educating parents on Restorative Practices and demonstrating what they look like in the MSD of Lawrence Township. A video of the presentation is available below for your use:
