Abstract:
Some 2,000 alternative schools, designed to remove disruptive students from the classroom, exist nationwide. While the schools seek to provide instruction to students who otherwise might be kicked out, they sometimes find themselves caught between being a disciplinarian and a rehabilitator. Critics also question whether isolating students is beneficial.
