School-to-Prison Pipelines
ABOUT
The interaction between young students, schools, and the juvenile and adult criminal justice systems in the United States as a result of the practices implemented by educational institutions in recent decades, including school disturbance laws, zero tolerance policies and practices, and an increase in police in schools.[1]

Where does it Begin?
The school-to-prison pipeline starts (or is best avoided) in the classroom. When combined with zero-tolerance policies, a teacher’s decision to refer students for punishment can mean they are pushed out of the classroom—and much more likely to be introduced into the criminal justice system.
IMPACT
Students from two groups—racial minorities and children with disabilities—are disproportionately represented in the school-to-prison pipeline.
Who is involved ?
Random Fact
African-American students, are 3.5 times more likely than their white classmates to be suspended or expelled, according to a nationwide study by the U.S. Department of Education Office for Civil Rights.
