Eradicating The School-To-Prison Pipeline Through A Comprehensive Approach To School Equity, Morgan Craven, Paula Johnson, Terrence Wilson Jul 2020

Eradicating The School-To-Prison Pipeline Through A Comprehensive Approach To School Equity, Morgan Craven, Paula Johnson, Terrence Wilson

University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review

When examining the school-to-prison pipeline, most focus on issues of exclusionary discipline, the presence of police in schools, or the use of intrusive surveillance and monitoring systems. To close the pipeline, agencies, educators, and advocates must also examine other, broader factors that contribute to educational inequities. We argue in this article that eradicating the school-to-prison pipeline involves tackling the legal structures, policies, practices, and beliefs that create harmful discipline systems and other linked inequitable systems.

Criminal Law—Teenage Sexting In Arkansas: How Special Legislation Addressing Sexting Behavior In Minors Can Salvage Arkansas's Teens' Futures, Sidney L. Leasure
