Kemp-Graham, Kriss Y.
Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership, v21 n3 p21-35 Sep 2018
Nationwide, African American girls have the highest suspension rates among all racial and ethnic groups. Furthermore, they are the most severely, disproportionately affected by school discipline policies and practices when compared with other girls. This case study was developed for use in education leadership programs to critically analyze school discipline policies and practices that disproportionately affect African American girls.
