In-school suspension (ISS) is a disciplinary technique used in schools to penalize students for their behavior while still ensuring that they participate in the academic community in some way. ISS is a positive setting that allows teachers to supervise students who have violated the schools code of conduct. When a student is put on ISS, they are removed from the traditional classroom environment and put into a special suspension classroom, led by a teacher or team of teachers. The suspension may last a few days or weeks, depending on the students offense, and the student may be warned that future offenses could result in additional suspension or expulsion. Students in ISS are not deprived of an educational experience. They can continue to receive assignments and academic support while they are excluded from class and school activities. The ISS classroom is staffed by a monitor who typically supervises and guides students in completing classroom work. The monitor may also be responsible for addressing the behavior that led to the removal from the classroom. Although ISS programs provide short-term education and behavior management services for students removed from the classroom for discipline-related issues, the Texas Education Code does not outline requirements for ISS programs. ISS is not to be confused with Integrated Student Supports (ISS), which is an emerging educational approach that works to improve students’ academic outcomes by systematically supporting their academic and non-academic needs.
