[LIT] detentions

[Alice Cortigiano]

I don't see it being valuable. It does nothing to change behavior and I see
the same repeat behaviors occurring over and over from the same kids. 
Detention to me is a waste of time, students and teachers. 

I like Tena's idea...community service.

Are detentions a worthwhile way of addressing behavior issues?
