CONTROVERSY ADDRESSED IN THIS ISSUE:
The School to Prison Pipeline refers to a national trend in which
school policies and practices are increasingly resulting in
criminalizing students rather than educating them. Statistics indicate
that the number of suspensions, expulsions, dropouts or “pushouts,” and
juvenile justice confinements is growing. Moreover, there is a
disproportionate impact on students of color and students with
disabilities and emotional problems. In this issue, we invite authors
to examine the policy implications, the political ramifications, and the
causes and possible solutions to this problem. Moreover, what are these
policies teaching our children?
