Detention with Dr. Nadia Lopez

By Detention With Dr. Nadia Lopez

Disruptors and Rebels only

Detention is seen as punishment for those who are always in trouble, never following the rules, being disobedient. So this will be conversations with those who are disruptors, forging new paths, challenging the system, thinking outside the box, and really getting to the actual root of the problem.

Kids who end up in detention are usually bored in class or has some underlying issue that rarely is explored because folks don’t make the time. But in the Detention we tackle the problems, make the time, and offer solutions.
