In this episode of Unpacking Education, we’re joined by Dr. Jessica Djabrayan Hannigan and Dr. John Hannigan—educators, authors, and national consultants—for a powerful conversation on shifting from reactive discipline to proactive behavioral support. Drawing from their experience and research-based frameworks, Jess and John challenge common misconceptions around student misbehavior and unpack how schools can replace punishment with targeted teaching. You’ll learn how their work, including Behavior Academies and Don’t Suspend Me!, equips educators with actionable tools to support students’ behavior and growth and, by extension, transform school climate.
