Book Description
The use of exclusionary discipline practices, which involves the removal of the student from the educational environment, continues to be a response used by schools for addressing student misconduct or delinquency. A major concern of stakeholders is that these types of discipline approaches may end up producing more negative outcomes for students (e.g., involvement in the criminal justice system or dropping out). Disciplinary Alternative Education Programs (DAEPs), a type of exclusionary discipline, are one of the more widely used tools used by schools. However, limited research has been conducted to understand how these programs operate and impact students. The purpose of this study was to understand the types of practices and support systems that are being implemented in DAEPs in Texas. Further, this study examined the relationship between program characteristics of a DAEP and its impact on recidivism to a DAEP. A mixed-methods approach was conducted. Specifically, an online survey was administered to DAEP principals to gather information on the types of practices implemented and an examination of the relationship with the rate of student recidivism. Next, follow-up interviews were conducted with DAEP principals from campuses that were found to have the highest and lowest student return rates to their DAEP.

Author: Alecia Beck Cobb
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Dallas Independent School District (Tex.)
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of disciplinary alternative education programs (DAEPs) are in meeting the academic and behavioral needs of assigned secondary students within the Dallas Independent School District. This research will examine how effective are the DAEPs' targeted interventions that focus on students with the most serious disciplinary and behavioral issues in changing their behavior in order for them to be successful in the regular school settings.

Inequities in Disciplinary Alternative Education Program Placements by Ethnicity/race and Economic Status for Texas Middle School Students

Book Description
Purpose The purpose of this journal-ready dissertation was to determine the extent to which differences were present in Disciplinary Alternative Education Program placement by student demographic characteristics for Grade 6, 7, and 8 students in Texas schools. In the first investigation, the degree to which Disciplinary Alternative Education Program placements differed by ethnicity/race (id est, Black, Hispanic, White, and Asian) for Grade 6, 7, and 8 boys were examined. In the second investigation, the degree to which Disciplinary Alternative Education Program placements differed by ethnicity/race (id est, Black, Hispanic, White, and Asian) for Grade 6, 7, and 8 girls were addressed. Finally, in the third study, the extent to which Disciplinary Alternative Education Program assignments differed by student economic status (id est, Not Economically Disadvantaged, Moderately Poor, and Extremely Poor) for Grade 6, 7, and 8 students were determined. In each of these three articles, four years of Texas statewide data were analyzed. As such, this multiyear analysis permitted a determination of trends in the differential assignment of Disciplinary Alternative Education Program placements for Grade 6, 7, and 8 Texas students. Method A causal comparative research design was employed in this quantitative investigation in which four years of Texas statewide data were analyzed. All of the independent variables and the dependent variables had already occurred, thus precluding the possibility of controlling for any extraneous variables. Findings Results were remarkably consistent across all four school years and across all three grade levels. In each of the school years, Black boys and Black girls were assigned statistically significantly higher rates of Disciplinary Alternative Education Program placements than their Hispanic, White, or Asian peers. Hispanic boys and Hispanic girls also received statistically significantly higher rates of Disciplinary Alternative Education Program placements than their White and Asian peers. Regardless of ethnicity/race, students who were Extremely Poor had statistically significantly higher rates of Disciplinary Alternative Education Program placements than their peers who were Not Poor or who were Moderately Poor. The results of these studies were congruent with the existing literature regarding the presence of inequities in the assignment of Disciplinary Alternative Education Program placements.

African American Student Placement in Disciplinary Alternative Education Programs
Author: Ivy Foss

Category : African American students
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship (predicative capability) between selected variables, specifically, African American student enrollment, teacher ethnicity, and urban or rural district classification and the number of African American student placements in a disciplinary alternative education program (DAEP). The study used a non-experimental ex post facto design. Archival data from the Texas Education Agency were used to identify Texas schools that sent African American students to a DAEP during the 2013-2014 school year. Archival data from the Texas Education Agency were also used to identify African American student enrollment and teacher ethnicity for the selected school districts. Finally, archival data from the Texas Department of Agriculture were used to identify district classifications of urban or rural. Participants in this study consisted of 187 school districts that placed African American students in a DAEP during the 2013-2014 school year. Based on the findings, teacher ethnicity and African American student enrollment are statistically significant contributions to African American student placement in a DAEP. Urban or rural district classification is not a statistically significant predictor in the same placements. Results of this study add to existing literature by confirming that there is an overrepresentation of African American student placements in DAEPs and suggesting possible ways to combat this epidemic.
