TEHCY Discipline Toolkit High-Level Walkthrough

The purpose of this one-hour training was to introduce educators to the contents and importance of the newly released TEHCY Discipline Toolkit. This is a high-level overview rather than a robust page-by-page walkthrough on how to use this tool. 

It is paramount that students experiencing homelessness have equitable access to all available supports and resources to meet the same challenging state academic standards established for all students and that all discipline-related requirements are understood, implemented, and followed. Overall, this toolkit presents clear and specific descriptions of the provisions of the McKinney-Vento Act as they pertain to discipline and includes practices, procedures, and tools that local education agencies (LEAs) will be able to use to strengthen services and supports to students experiencing homelessness, also known as McKinney-Vento eligible students.
