PURE Reform has created this blog as a forum for parents, teachers and community members to share information and voice concerns regrading the reform process in the Pittsburgh Public Schools. Although we would like to foster constructive dialogue, PURE Reform does not edit content. The views expressed by bloggers in this forum are not necessarily views held by PURE Reform.

Every legislative session begins with the report on student discipline, "X# suspended and assigned to a different school, etc..." It is the number of repeat offenders that should be reported to judge what is working or not, BPIS, Promise as an incentive, reassignment, in-house and others we non-educators might not know.
BTW, my $.02 and the link had NOTHING to do with conditions at Brashear. My remarks just fit into the reading of the day and this posting about security.

Article about research from Chicago says Schools are safer if there is higher achievement and better relationships with adults.
Isn't it funny how mean people often bring out the worst in others?
