Peer Mediation
Every year six 8th grade students are trained as peer mediators. Peer mediators are student's who, with adult supervision, mediate conflicts between their peers. Mediation promotes a positive school environment in which students learn a peaceful way to resolve conflicts. This process teaches mutual respect through clear and direct communication.
Procedures for mediation:
◊Any student can request mediation.
◊Students can be referred to mediation by staff or other students..
◊All parties must agree voluntarily to the process
