Many states and local early childhood programs are interested in reducing exclusionary discipline of young children but lack valid and reliable data on the extent to which young children with or at risk for disabilities are being suspended and expelled. This webinar explored a new tool developed by the Center for IDEA Early Childhood Data Systems (DaSy Center), the National Center for Pyramid Model Innovations (NCPMI), and the Early Childhood Technical Assistance Center (ECTA) to help states, local early childhood programs, and families identify, collect, and use data to better understand exclusionary discipline practices and implement strategies to reduce use of those practices.
