This important volume examines how and why increasing numbers of
students, disproportionately youth of color, are being taken from
our schools and put into our prisons. Williamson and Appleman,
along with a collection of scholars, teacher educators, K-12
teachers, administrators, and incarcerated students, offer their
perspectives on how schooling can be restructured to disrupt this
flow and dismantle the school-to-prison pipeline. They present
clearly articulated strategies on curriculum, pedagogy, and
disciplinary practices that can help redirect our collective
efforts away from carceral practices. By considering chapters from
prison educators and currently incarcerated students (the end of
the pipeline), readers will plainly see the disciplinary and
curricular issues that need to be addressed in our schools. The
text includes examples of meaningful ways to engage students that
could be incorporated into a variety of classrooms, from social
studies to science to English language arts.Book Features:
Instructive cautionary tales with specific pedagogical and policy
suggestions. Alternatives to discipline in schools, such as
restorative justice and positive behavioral support. Insights to
help educators consider the trajectory of their students, as well
as suggestions for making the curriculum both relevant and
sustaining. Directly addresses the ways in which an understanding
of the mechanisms of the school-to-prison pipeline can be woven
into teacher preparation.
