This presentation will explore our journey at Olympia Middle School as we examined the critical link between student attendance, positive discipline practices, and a successful learning environment. By fostering high attendance rates and implementing effective discipline strategies that focus on restorative practices, schools can create an atmosphere conducive to academic achievement and social-emotional well-being. This presentation will address the challenges faced in both areas and offer practical strategies for teachers, counselor, and administrators who are invested in improving student outcomes.
