These data are intended to be useful for policymaking at the federal, state, and local levels.  \nThe National Forum on Education Statistics (Forum) is an entity of the Cooperative System and, among its other activities, proposes principles of good practice to assist state and local education agencies (SEAs and LEAs) in meeting this purpose. The Cooperative System and the Forum are supported in these endeavors by resources from NCES.  \nPublications of the Forum do not undergo the same formal review required for products of NCES.

This guide is designed for use by school, district, and state education agency staff to improve the effectiveness of efforts to collect and use discipline data, including reporting accurate and timely data to the federal government. It explains the importance of collecting discipline data, identifies key considerations for agencies implementing and managing a discipline data system, and discusses how discipline data can be used and reported effectively. Case studies provide examples of successful practices used in LEAs and SEAs.  \nOne goal of the Forum is to improve the quality of education data gathered for use by policymakers and program decision makers. An approach to furthering this goal has been to pool the collective experiences of Forum members to produce “best practice” guides in areas of high interest to those who collect, maintain, and use data about elementary and secondary education. The accurate, consistent, and timely collection and reporting of discipline data by schools, districts, and SEAs is one of those high-interest areas.  \nThis guide reflects the judgment of experienced data managers. There is no mandate to follow these principles. The authors hope that the contents are a useful reference to others in their work.  \nPublication Objectives  \nThe purpose of this document is to help education agencies collect, manage, report, and use high-quality, timely data about discipline. This document is created to  \n• discuss the importance of discipline data and how these data have changed over time;  \n• present strategies for tracking discipline data, including best practices for managing and maintaining data and providing effective staff training;  \n• discuss how these data can be reported and used; and  \n• highlight case studies from SEAs and LEAs that have implemented effective data practices.  \nIntended Audience  \nThe primary aud","cbCaivmpOoVYer7U","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivmpOoVYer7U","pdf",3231414,63,"English","# Foreword\n# Publication Objectives\n## Intended Audience\n# Organization of This Resource\n# Development of Forum Products","[{\"question\":\"Who is the intended audience for the Forum Guide to Discipline Data?\",\"answer\":\"The primary audience is staff from schools, districts, and state education agencies who collect and use discipline data, including those responsible for accurate and timely federal reporting.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the guide aim to help agencies do?\",\"answer\":\"It helps education agencies collect, manage, report, and use high-quality, timely discipline data, improving student outcomes and learning environments while supporting equity.\"},{\"question\":\"What topics are covered in the guide’s organization?\",\"answer\":\"The resource is organized into chapters covering introduction, key considerations for tracking discipline data, using and reporting discipline data, and case studies from SEAs and LEAs.\"}]","Forum Guide to Discipline Data | PDF",1792056174,159]
