Discipline is such an integral part of students' lives that we cannot imagine our existence without it. We often talk about it when we become weary of living a disciplined life and wish to break free from it. Then, realization dawns on us and we travel back in time and start thinking about our school days when teacher used to teach us the importance of discipline in our lives. So it’s a topic that teachers address in their classrooms in order to contain the behavior of their students. In fact, assignments are given to prepare an essay or a speech on discipline. Being a member of this beautiful community provides each of us the opportunity to learn from each other and practice the responsibilities that are required for a community to be safe and welcoming to each of its members. Achieving this is hard work that requires patience, critical thinking, compassion, and a commitment to the idea of community. I invite all of you into a partnership with our division in this important process. Everyone benefits when we work together to create an inclusive and engaging this academy.
