Zero Tolerance Policies in Schools

by Jill Hamilton and Peggy Daniels

This compelling volume helps students analyze zero tolerance policies in U.S. public schools, as authors debate the effectiveness and fairness of such policies. Readers will form their own well researched opinion by evaluating each viewpoint offered, ranging in topics such as whether zero tolerance creates risks, whether it harms teachers, whether it treats students and criminals, and most importantly, whether it violates a student's rights.
