Student reflection, reteaching & restoration

Reflect.Reteach.Restore.

A practical student-support system that turns discipline into understanding, skill building, repair, and a supported return to learning.

Four collections for elementary, middle, high school, and continuation settings.

Built for real schoolsDesigned around school-day realities, not theory.
Ask about the pilot

Piloting in weeks, not months

Start focused. Learn quickly. Build from practice.

A clear three-step path helps a school begin without waiting for a lengthy rollout.

Use, review, refineRun the 4–6 week pilot, examine the workflow, and share practical feedback.

One restorative sequence

Three pillars move the student forward.

Reflect

Understand what happened, identify the choices made, and name the impact on people and learning.

Reteach

Teach a concrete replacement skill, then give the student a chance to rehearse a better response.

Restore

Repair harm, reconnect with the learning community, and return with dignity and a clear plan.

See the complete journey

From the incident to a supported return.

Follow the student reflection, reteaching, repair, family connection, and privacy-conscious reporting process from beginning to end.

For students

Complete your reflection and get ready to return.

Your school has selected a ReConnectEd packet to help you understand what happened, practice a better response, and make a plan to rejoin learning.

Pilot access is open

Enter the live packet flow.

The pilot opens in a new tab. Complete each part with honesty and take your time. Your submission enters the school’s review process.

Subscription access coming soon. The live student flow stays online; any school-use document view will be print-only, with no download or Save to Drive option.

What to expect

The packet is a guided conversation, not a test. You can ask the adult supporting you to explain a question or help you record your response.

  1. Choose the assigned packetUse the school setting, behavior topic, and access level selected with staff.
  2. Read and reflectConsider the scenario, your choices, and how the incident affected people and learning.
  3. Practice what comes nextWork through a replacement skill and identify an appropriate repair.
  4. Submit for reviewAn administrator reviews the packet before any family follow-up is sent.
Need help or feel unsafe?

Stop the packet and tell a trusted adult immediately. The online reflection does not replace urgent support or school safety procedures.

Working pilot

Try a live packet.

This is the real online workflow—not a demonstration.

Pilot schools can guide a student through a reflection packet online and submit it directly into the review process.

Open the live packet

Every submission moves through review.

The packet is one step in a supported process—not a stand-alone student form.

Student reflection is submittedThe completed packet enters the administrator’s pending-review queue.
An administrator reviews itThe administrator checks the response and assigns the incident number before family follow-up.
The family closes the loopThe family receives the packet, responds, and the administrator is notified.

For schools & districts

A consistent response across settings, staff, and students.

ReConnectEd gives adults a common process for reflection, reteaching, repair, return, and follow-up—while adapting the student materials to age and access needs.

Data & reports

Turn completed reflections into patterns leaders can act on.

Reviewed submissions feed a leader-facing view of behavior trends without turning the student reflection into a surveillance tool. PBIS reporting uses demographic groupings rather than student names.

Charts can be downloaded as JPEGs for presentations, and the full report can be prepared as a PDF.

Topics & incidentsSee which behavior topics appear most often and how the pattern changes over time.
Locations & timesIdentify recurring school-day hotspots that may benefit from supervision or systems changes.
Trends over timeCompare reflection volume and follow-up patterns across selected date ranges.
Downloadable reportingExport individual visuals or prepare the whole dashboard for a board, staff, or PBIS report.

Works with your PBIS framework.

ReConnectEd supports the systems schools already use—without adding new jargon for students or staff.

A better consequence

Accountability without disconnection.

Removal may stop behavior. ReConnectEd teaches what comes next through one consistent, adult-guided process.

When discipline stops at removal

  • The behavior stops; the skill gap remains.
  • Students return without a re-entry plan.
  • Adults respond inconsistently.

With a ReConnectEd response

  • Reflection matches the student’s access level.
  • Repair responds to the harm.
  • Re-entry is taught and supported.

One topic. Four ways in.

See how one fighting reflection adapts across four reading-access levels while the Reflect–Repair–Return pathway stays consistent.

Student Reflection, Reteaching & Restoration System

Physical Fighting / Mutual Physical Conflict

Level 1 · Emerging · Read this with an adult. You can talk, draw, or circle your answers.

Before you begin: This story is not about you. It is about another student with a big problem. First we read. Then we think. Then we talk about you.

A Student’s Big Feelings

A student was playing at recess. Another student bumped into them.

The student felt mad. Their face felt hot. Their hands made fists.

The student pushed a peer. The peer pushed back. A teacher came and stopped them. The game was over.

Stop & Think

  • How did the student feel?
  • Was pushing a safe choice?
  • Next time I feel mad, I can…

About the consultant

Experience that connects people, systems, and practice.

Dr. Rick Torres helps school leaders and educators build practical, relationship-centered systems that support student growth, educator learning, and stronger school communities.

The complete ReConnectEd process

From incident to supported return.

One shared sequence carries each incident through reflection, repair, family connection, and follow-up.

Safety & readiness

Address immediate needs and required procedures.

Capture recollection

Record the student’s account in neutral language.

Select

Match the topic and access level to the student.

Reflect

Examine choices and impact through story and prompts.

Reteach

Teach and rehearse a replacement skill.

Repair & return

Plan an appropriate repair and supported return.

Family connection

Extend reflection and partnership at home.

Follow up

Document, check in, and reinforce the new skill.

Purpose in every page

What the documents are built to do.

Each packet moves from a student story to reflection, skill practice, repair, and return—with an adult guiding the conversation.

Inside each student document

From understanding the moment to practicing what comes next.

  1. Relatable scenarioA third-person story creates a safe place to begin.
  2. Guided reflectionPrompts identify feelings, choices, and impact.
  3. Skill rehearsalA replacement strategy is taught and practiced.
  4. Repair & returnThe student makes it right and prepares to rejoin.

Two complementary lenses

Social-emotional skill building meets restorative accountability.

CASEL competency areas
  • Self-awareness
  • Self-management
  • Social awareness
  • Relationship skills
  • Responsible decision-making

Prompts and skill lessons reinforce these areas. Design alignment does not imply CASEL endorsement.

A restorative approach
Understand what happened Acknowledge impact Identify repair Plan the return

Students examine harm, practice a better response, and return with support.

Adult guidance remains essential.Staff choose the document, guide the conversation, and plan follow-up.

Pilot spotlight

Early use informs what comes next.

Verified comments will be added as pilot partners complete more cycles. Until then, the spotlight keeps the learning questions visible without inventing results.
