I'm Tammy Dee, MSW, LICSW. I have spent the previous 12 years implementing, researching, and evaluating alternatives to punitive discipline policy and practice in schools. I partner with schools and organizations to provide research-based insights and guidance on School Discipline reform and youth mental health promotion. I also work with schools to develop and refine their Tier 2-3 behavioral intervention systems, referrals processes, school mental health programs, and community-school partnerships. I focus on role clarity, scope, communication, and referral practices to make sure students in schools with multiple providers and partnerships don't fall through the cracks. |
School discipline services
I partner with schools to assess, understand, and remedy their unique school discipline dilemmas. Working together, we address your building's immediate needs while building your organizational capacity for effective and equitable School Discipline Reform.
Domains of DisciplineThere is no silver bullet. School Discipline reform is complex and context-dependent.
Rather than starting with solutions, we work together to assess your discipline needs and strengths in various domains of discipline practice. We addresses your urgent discipline dilemmas while explicitly building your organizational capacity to do this work over time. We pull from best-available research to design interventions that are realistic and sustainable. |
