Description
Tier 2/3 Practices for Becoming Restorative is an in depth discussion into how to use restorative approaches for repairing harm and strengthening relationships when something difficult has happened. We will learn two strategies and when to use each (restorative conversations and healing circles), and practice using the strategies with one another.

If you are not eligible for PDPs and/or CEUs, you may apply for a Certificate of Attendance.
About the Speaker
Jess Madden-Fuoco, M.A., M.Ed., started teaching in 1997 and was an assistant principal for 13 years and an instructional coach for four years. Jess is now a Restorative Practices Coach and English Teacher at an alternative school in the Boston Public Schools. Since 2012, Jess has been leading professional learning across the Boston Public Schools on teacher evaluation processes and restorative practices. Since she began working in schools, Jess was always concerned about school being too punitive and not helping young people learn from their mistakes, so she was grateful to learn about restorative justice in 2008. Jess began teaching educators about restorative justice in 2016; designed the fully online Becoming Restorative Course in 2022; and co-facilitated four courses this past spring for 93 educators and leaders from across the Boston Public Schools. Jess loves to think about having a positive impact on more students by supporting the growth of all staff who work in schools.
