Restorative Practices & circles
Our AVID teachers, tutors, and students use Restorative Practices to guide our relationship and community building. We use Circles in our classrooms for everything from sharing our POC (point of confusion from the weekly TRF) to debriefing major events. Participating in Circles gives every student a voice as well as, an opportunity to be an active listener.
Another purpose of Restorative Practices and Circles is repairing harm and resolving conflict. Anyone at OV can request a Restorative Circle and we have systems in place to ensure they are conducted fairly.
For more details about how schools all of Orange County are using Restorative Practices, check out the OCDE RP website.
