Licton Springs Restorative Practices Family Night

Restorative Justice- a philosophy and set of practices, rooted in Indigenous teachings, that emphasize our interconnection by repairing relationships when harm occurs while proactively building and maintaining relationships to prevent future harm (Wa BLOC).

Licton Springs has a commitment to implementing Restorative Practices as a schoolwide model to relationship building and in response to how we handle conflict. The start of this work is relationship building and fostering a strong classroom community, which all staff are committed to doing every day with every scholar. We started this work last year and plan to continue this for years to come. We have partnered with WA-BLOC this year to support our professional development for staff on early release Wednesdays.

Are you interested in learning more about the work we are doing at our school? Come out and join us on May 9th from 4:30-6:00 to get more insight into Restorative Practices at Licton Springs. Conflict is a natural part of life. How we choose to respond to one another is the meaningful work that Licton Springs is committed to. Relationships matter!
