6. Previous Results Our school wide discipline goals, for the 2009-2010 school year were: ∙ To decrease the number of office referrals by 10%, ∙ To decrease the number of fights by 10%, ∙ Increase attendance by at least 1%, ∙ Decrease the number of misconduct incidents by 10% ∙ And decrease the number of disruptive behavior incidents by 10%. In working towards reaching our first goal we took several steps. The team asked teachers to become more aware and to provide more supervision in places such as the cafeteria and restrooms. Teachers were asked to follow procedures for dealing with problem behaviors (i.e. warning, conference, call parent, etc.). Teachers also were provided professional development using the book, The First Six Weeks of School. The counselor assisted in problem solving, delivering classroom guidance, and peer mediation. Assembly programs and resource persons were used to encourage positive behavior. The school community encouraged students to participate in positive activities such as Student Leadership Club, Paws for Praise, and Fairley Elementary Steppers. In making progress towards our second goal the school made various changes. The school wide discipline team made changes to the incentives for students to remain Fight Free. The team reported monthly to the faculty, data that included the number of fights for that month compared to the previous month, when and where the fights were taking place, and which grade level(s) and teachers had the most fights. Teachers were encouraged to increase supervision, promote Fight Free, and refer students for counseling or peer mediation. The counselor used classroom guidance to talk with students about being Fight Free, bullying prevention, and conflict resolution. Small group counseling sessions dealing with anger management and social skills were instituted by the counselor.
