This session will present a case study of a culturally and linguistically diverse high school that implemented a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) emphasizing culturally responsive and restorative practices. By analyzing student, adult, policy, and structural factors through an anti-racist and anti-ableist lens, the school's leadership team shifted their disciplinary and support systems from focusing on control to promoting equitable and inclusive practices. The case study demonstrates how MTSS can be used to increase faculty competence in restorative pedagogy, benefiting all students, particularly those with disabilities who are disproportionately affected by punitive disciplinary practices. Attendees will gain practical strategies for implementing a similar approach in their schools.
