Bill overview
The Restorative Practices in Schools Act of 2022 aims to help local schools shift away from strict, punitive disciplinary policies like zero-tolerance towards approaches that focus on repairing harm and building community. It provides grants for schools to implement restorative practices, which emphasize addressing the root causes of student behavior and fostering positive school climates. The bill also directs a study on the school-to-prison pipeline to identify effective interventions and address disparities in student discipline.
