| Student Discipline Use Case Updates | | - Incidents, location, date, action taken by student w/Demographic:
- Geolocation will be different and depending on the system might not be relevant.
- It might make sense to consider breaking down from the classroom and outside school.
- Intervention support would be a place where they are trying to capture if that is happening in the playground, cafeteria or hallway.
- In San Marcos, they have locations at a higher level but not very detailed like the samples provided in the samples. They don't always provide the location.
- Capture bus incidents, we are interested in this data but now sure if it should be classified as in or out of school.
- Number/Percentage of incidents by Type:
- Students with multiple incidents:
- Major/Minor incidents will be hard to categorize, KY districts map to State incidents how do others too?
- Happy - They do categorize their incidents as major/minor but they are having a governance discussion around how they are grouping even within their districts.
- San Marcos - They break incidents into further categories. All codes are state-aligned but they have higher-level categories.
- WY also has a state-level incident and then a school code of conduct more specific categories.
- The state is required to report to the department of ed gun-related weapons incidents, but districts and schools might be coding more detailed categories. The higher-level perspective is useful, but to drill down to the specifics will probably be more helpful to decide actions/interventions.
- Add a full spectrum of demographics, program info (review ESSA reporting categories)
- Privacy concern, this is a summary table so maybe not so many concerns.
- Looking for disproportionality issues
- Number/Percentage of incidents by location
- How are students with multiple incidents shown?
- Number/Percentage of actions taken by type/code
- Number of out of school suspensions that you want to track/
- In general, we want to track the actions taken as there are some that we don't want to engage in, we found a data governance issue when we saw actions reported that we don't allow so this was a bad data.
- Is the count represent students:
- What if a student had the same action applied multiple times?
- Are some groups of students getting disproportionately harsher responses for the same incidents?
- As-is this report is a bit confusing, not clear what the purpose/use of this metric is. It seems to be for high-level accountability of actions taken at the school/district level, will need to dig a bit more into what the purpose is.
