Modern administrators face a host of thorny questions that in previous generations did not have to be addressed. They include:
- How do you address potentially controversial content without dividing the community?
- How do you address the sensitive issue of cultural competence without blame or shame?
- How do you reverse disproportionality in discipline rates, special education assignments, drop out rates, and overall academic achievement?
- How do you reduce legal exposure for sexual harassment or bias offenses that occur on school property?
Ripple Effects is responsive to all of these concerns. A database structure allows administrators a data management system that allows administrators to delete content they feel is inappropriate to a particular audience; private tutoring on sensitive issues related to ethnicity and class; specific interventions for sexual harassment and bias activity, and a multi-level approach to reversing disproportionality are part of the Ripple Effects Whole Spectrum Intervention System. |
