Join John Converse, Education Plus Director of Restorative Practices in the first administrator breakaway of the 2025-2026 school year.  John is an International Institute for Restorative Practices (IIRP) Certified Trainer and has worked in education for over 13 years as an administrator and educator in a high-risk, low-income district for more than 10 years.

The term Restorative Practices has taken on many forms over the years and some forms have placed a bad taste in the mouth of its recipient.  Our job as a school administrator is to help set the tone for a successful culture in the building.  One way we can do this is by creating a Restorative environment for all.  But "how" is the big question.  Let's explore what a Restorative Culture can mean and what it takes to get it going in your K-12 school community.
