Abstract: Rather than creating safer schools, punitive policies--such as zero-tolerance discipline policies--appear only to have created hostile learning environments. In response, many advocacy organizations have urged schools to adopt a human rights framework, including restorative practices. Schools with restorative approaches have noted dramatic decreases in behavioral incidents and disciplinary sanctions since implementation. This article focuses on one school, Humanities Preparatory Academy, a small New York City public high school that uses a restorative justice model called the Fairness Committee to address community norm violations. It provides insight into both the ways that Fairness operates on the school level and the ways that students respond to participatory and restorative practices. (Contains 2 footnotes.)
