Spring 2014: “Restorative Justice” College Winner Matt Flagg
[]
Yes For Teachers Archive - YES! Magazine
Matt Flagg, a student of Sarah Zale at Cascadia Community College in Bothell, Washington, read and responded to the YES!
Magazine article, “Where Dignity is Part of the School Day,” by Fania Davis, a story about using restorative justice circles in schools in lieu of zero-tolerance punishment.
What would you say to the teachers and school administrators involved about how the situation was handled?
Perhaps this is because it created a system, which despite its questionable fairness, allowed school punishment to be easily carried out, straightforward, and mindless.
If I could have talked to them, I could have let them know the background behind the incident and protested the unfairness of the punishment system.
