This method needs to be modified to make sure that both student's perspectives were being seen, and understood. They are categorizing one student as 'right' and one student as 'wrong'. Instead BOTH students should be taking responsibility for their actions. Both students had faults, and both students should be held responsible. Not ok to give one student what they "need" but neglect the other student's valid feelings.
This is a great idea! Have you guys posted resources anywhere for others to see? Did you come up with this on your own or did you use some type of Program. Thanks
Hi Chris, On this link, we reference the book that started it all for us. We also worked with some consultants who helped us create our process and train our group. www.pittsfieldnhschools.org/pmhs/restorative-justice/

Actually, I agree with this. Interesting point.

Wish this video had more kids/adults representing people of color. Worry that people think RJ is for white schools rather than all schools.
I have done this in schools of different races and it does work. But I totally agree with your comment.
