  Case: Are reflections the best answer for consequences?
When we have a student at our school that gets a discipline referral, their consequence is to write a 1/2 page reflection letter and an apology note to the teacher. This consequence has no effect or meaning to many students, especially the older ones. What are some other consequences that our administration could try?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Parent contact. My school started this year with contacting parents from the first discipline referral. The administration always contacts the parent and we teachers try to make contact as well. We have found that the parents in our community want to be involved in their children's education and they definitely want to know about behavior issues. Parents are often the ones who have the power to take away what will actually influence the child (cell phone, TV privileges, car keys, nights out with friends, etc.) and have been a huge help. When the students know that their parents and teachers are in contact and are on the same page with expected behavior, our students have shown improved behavior.

Comments: I think it gives proper incentive for students to consider their actions and making sure they're on task so they don't get privileges taken away.

Comments: I agree it is very important to get on the same page with the parents when you are a team the student will learn that there is no give in the rules and expectations. This will increase appropriate behavior.
