Effective discipline, especially for those who need specialized behavior supports, starts long before a disruption occurs. This session focuses on high-leverage classroom processes that foster regulation and prevent escalation. Key takeaways include:

• Designing physical and instructional environments that support neurodiversity
• Building rapport and emotional piggy banks with high-need students
• Establishing predictable routines that minimize behavioral triggers

Meaningful Discipline is a specialized training series for educators focused on replacing punitive-only disciplinary models with evidence-based alternatives. This series will help administrators, special education directors, and other stakeholders navigate the challenges associated with discipline, compliance, and special education.

Participants will have access to a folder with all resources from each session, including slide decks, notes, and other reference materials.
