Empowering students

"This Resource Series curriculum guide focuses on students' rights and responsibilities as members of the school and the community at large. It engages students in serious discussions, requiring them to think critically and ask questions. They learn to understand both their rights and the responsibilities attached to those rights. Through discussions around Supreme Court decisions and other issues pertaining to school-aged children, students begin to see what they are "giving up" when they misbehave instead of what is being taken away, building a sense of empowerment and more connectedness to school."--Publisher
