Discipline Outcomes
Discipline outcomes are posted to enhance the transparency of the processes and decisions made with respect to complaints and reports about educators. Recently, a summary of an outcome was posted about a teacher whose certificate was suspended for two days. The outcome has been anonymized to protect the identity of students who were harmed, abused, or exploited by the teacher.
