In this interactive professional learning session, participants will explore the Discipline in the Secondary Classroom (DSC) framework, a powerful tool for promoting positive behavior and effective classroom management. Tailored for secondary educators, this session offers practical strategies to create a structured, respectful, and engaging learning environment that minimizes disruptions and fosters student success.

DSC specifically addresses the challenges unique to secondary classrooms, offering proven techniques to handle disruptive behaviors, emphasizing consistency, fairness, and accountability. Whether you're new to the CHAMPS and DSC frameworks or refining your existing practices, this session will equip you with the tools and confidence to create a positive classroom culture where students thrive academically, socially, and behaviorally.
