The research presented in this volume demonstrates that disciplinary policies and practices that schools control directly exacerbate today's profound inequities in educational opportunity and outcomes. Part I explores how suspensions flow along the lines of race, gender, and disability status. Part II examines potential remedies that show great promise, including a district-wide approach in Cleveland, Ohio, aimed at social and emotional learning strategies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003eClosing the School Discipline Gap\u003c\/em\u003e is a call for action that focuses on an area in which public schools can and should make powerful improvements in a relatively short period of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBook Features: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Shows the academic and social costs of excessive disciplinary exclusion.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Examines school policies and practices that lead generations of African-American and Latino youth into the school-to-prison pipeline.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Offers evidence-based interventions for reducing excessive and disparate out-of-school suspensions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Connects the research presented to real changes that can be made to federal, state, and district policies.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel J.
