Board members are expected to overhaul the way schools track disruptive behavior and how it communicates with families about incidents at school.The board is slated to approve changes to the student code of conduct.
Letters alerting parents about those behaviors would no longer refer to them as "misconduct" or "violations."The proposed changes are part of a broader district move away from punitive discipline, which they believe disproportionally affects students of color and students with disabilities. If approved by the full board, Melville Fuller Elementary in Bronzeville would become James Farmer Junior Elementary, in honor of the civil rights leader.
