School Climate/Discipline

School climate is a broad, multifaceted concept that involves many aspects of the student’s educational experience. A positive school climate is the product of a school’s attention to fostering safety; promoting a supportive academic, disciplinary, and physical environment; and encouraging and maintaining respectful, trusting, and caring relationships throughout the school community no matter the setting—from Pre-K/Elementary School to higher education.
Getting Involved
When families are involved in a child’s education, students are more likely to do well in school, demonstrate positive behavior, build stronger attitudes toward learning, and experience long-term success.
