  • Restorative Justice is a mindset and philosophy toward school climate and

relationship building in a system. It is a social justice platform that allows students to actively engage and problem-solve physical, psychological, social and disciplinary issues that affect their lives and the community at large, take responsibility for their actions and work with those affected to restore the community and members who were harmed as a result of those actions.
