We unravel the inefficiencies of traditional In-School Suspension (ISS) programs and explore the blueprint for a successful academic and trauma responsive ISS room. Join us as we delve into trauma-informed strategies within ISS, providing practical insights for fostering a supportive environment. We also unveiled the launch of "The Art of In-School Suspension," a cutting-edge Digital PD Course designed to revolutionize your approach to ISS. Tune in for a dynamic conversation that promises to reshape your perspective on disciplinary practices in your school!

Effective practices to collaborate with staff

Goals to increase student academics in ISS

And Johnathan’s The Art of In-School-Suspension book

Johnathan has seven years of experience as a special education teacher at a therapeutic campus for students with emotional disturbance and five more years as an in-school suspension teacher. After discovering how in-school suspension programs are failing to meet the needs of our most at-risk students, Johnathan created a trauma-informed in-school suspension program to address the current disciplinary, academic, and restorative requirements of our student populations. After successfully establishing ISS programs on multiple campuses, he made the decision to create a roadmap for others to follow in his latest book The Art of In-School Suspension.
