  6. i haven't seen any specific practices in place to promote fairness; however, i have spoken to the administrators, and they seem to keep an open mind in all situations.
  7. i think our school does a good job of making equitable decisions when students, staff, and parents are involved. while decisions might not technically be "fair" or "equal", i believe that we try to take many aspects of a situation into account and strive to meet an individual's specific needs so that they are given an equal opportunity for success.
  8. the blt process is also beneficial for fairness within the school community concerning individuals and/or populations. concerns may also need to be addressed on a case-by-case basis. our school operates somewhat on a system of checks and balances. there are always many individuals or groups to support one another in ensuring that everyone is treated fairly.
