About Johnathan Cranford
Johnathan has seven years of experience as a special education teacher at a therapeutic campus for students with emotional disturbance and five more years as an in-school suspension teacher. After discovering how in-school suspension programs are failing to meet the needs of our most at-risk students, Johnathan created a trauma-informed in-school suspension program to address the current disciplinary, academic, and restorative requirements of our student populations. After successfully establishing ISS programs on multiple campuses, he made the decision to create a roadmap for others to follow in his latest book The Art of In-School Suspension.
