- Title
Aggression Replacement Training: A Viable Alternative.
- Authors
McGinnis, Ellen
- Abstract
Suspension is a widely listed practice in public schools and has been a policy reaction to both minor and aggressive student behaviors. The long term negative impact of the repeated use of suspensions is well documented. Evidence based alternatives such as Aggression Replacement Training (ART), are readily available and will produce positive and more durable results. Grounded in theory and research, ART focuses on the proactive teaching of acceptable behaviors to replace actions of aggression, uses strategies to teach anger control and further enhances students moral development.
