It’s almost here!

Don’t Kick Them Out 2.0 (10th Anniversary Edition) is my playbook for managing negative school behavior. Its valuable insights include how to know when students must be removed from school, behavior strategies, and daily practices that work in every school to improve classroom management, bus behavior, reduce fighting and school shootings. 

In this tenth anniversary edition of Don’t Kick Them Out, we will offer some of the best practices on critical matters that have disrupted learning over the last fifty years. I’ve seen them work for others and have used them myself. The key to using this book as a resource is to understand that if a practice doesn’t work for your community, simply don’t use it. Don’t get offended, don’t try to discredit the practice; just stop using it. Identify your people and what they need. Find the practices that will work. You can find many ideas in this book that can lead to very productive results.

We will tackle the following challenges: 

• understanding the difference between classroom management and student management 
• learning how to understand your population and the issues within it
• stopping fighting on school campuses 
• improving school bus behavior
• understanding the brutal impact of COVID-19 
• identifying whether PBIS and restorative practices work for your school
• identifying strategies and practices that work across the board
• proactive school shooter prevention
• identifying  instructional practices that promote positive student behavior and      learning
• building      healthy student–teacher relationships 

This book is a guide and source of excellent advice and counsel for all in education who seek understanding and solutions that can help them become better teachers and administrators. This book will be a step-by-step guide in these critical areas. Use it for book studies, discussion points, and personal and professional growth. No more complaining, excuses, or denial. Be a part of the solution.
