Abstract

Racial and ethnic disparities in school discipline in the United States have been well researched, and explanations often highlight the role of structural inequality in explaining these trends. Research has yet to examine disparities in school discipline within a population for which structural inequalities are relatively accounted. Using data from a high school located on a US military installation, we examine patterns of discipline within this sample, representing a population of students whose parents have steady employment, housing, health care, counseling, and childcare. Findings indicate racial and ethnic disparities in discipline are minimal due to the military culture, access to resources, and focus on rehabilitative discipline.
