NYC sends 30% of students with emotional disabilities to segregated schools. Is this program a way out?

This is part one of a two-part series. Sign up for Chalkbeat New York’s free email newsletter to be the first to know when the next story publishes. At the beginning of last school year, a second grader in Emily Levin and Christina O’Connell’s class at P.S. 105 in Far Rockaway kept walking out of the classroom during lessons. When students repeatedly refuse to stay where they are supposed to be — a behavior teachers call “eloping” — it often becomes a discipline issue or power struggle, leading to worse behavior and bigger problems over time. For some kids, the situation escalates so intensely that staff call school safety agents or police officers to intervene. But this Queens elementary school is one of eight schools across New York City participating in the Path program , a four-year-old project designed to serve students with emotional and behavioral difficulties that interfere with their education. Rather than punishing the student or trying to force him to stop leaving, Levin and O’Connell had training and support to focus on the motivation behind the behavior: What was making him uncomfortable in the classroom and how could he feel safe to stay?
