What is Positive Discipline?
Discipline means the training necessary to produce or establish a specific pattern of behavior, especially training that produces moral or mental improvement.
Positive discipline works to create an inclusive environment where students want to come to learn and participate.
Positive discipline emphasizes teachers catching students doing things well or correctly.
