After getting into fights, Robert Coleman Elementary sends its disruptive students to the Mindful Moment Room. Once there, a worker like Michelle Lee will talk to the student and ask them what happened.
After the gentle talk, Lee walks them through stretches and breathing exercises. When the student is calm, they are allowed to go back to class. Since being introduced to the school three years ago, not a single suspension has been handed out.
