Johnathan Cranford is an in-school suspension teacher in Houston, TX and author of The Art of In-School Suspension: A Discipline Program that Benefits Staff and Students.
On today’s episode we dive into Johnathan’s passion project, making ISS effective. He emphasizes the importance of having an educator in the room, focusing on a system of doing your work, and building in SEL instruction. The bar for ISS is often low in schools and he believes some investment will pay big returns for students, teachers, and administrators.
