Summer Institute in Restorative PracticesJune 28-30, 2010

Augusta Civic Center, Augusta, ME

This 3-day Summer Institute will introduce participants to restorative school practices and restorative discipline. Within a whole school approach, these practices build caring school communities that support students, staff and administrators in feeling connected and respected, which enhances learning outcomes. Discipline becomes part of a learning environment featuring accountability and support rather than punishment and exclusion. The institute will include presentations, discussion, activities and experience with the Community Circle process. Collaborative partners and guest practitioners will present.

Cost: $300 per person for the 3 days, which includes materials, lunches and snacks.

CEU’s: 2.0 CEU’s from UMaine will be awarded upon completion.

Schedule: Monday 8:30 am-4:00 pm; Tuesday 8:30 am-4:00 pm; Wednesday 8:30 am- 3:00 pm

Registration Deadline: June 4, 2010. Space is limited so register early!
