Disciplining Assertively & Respectfully
12. Effective discipline is a process that evolves over
time.
Seeking input, advice and support is a sign of strength and
confidence, not a sign of weakness or lack of control.
A vital part of an administrators job is supporting classroom
management through dialogue with the teacher and through his/her
presence throughout the building.
