The ENTIRE School Stops When…

At Friends School of Minnesota in St. Paul, when conflicts arise between students the entire school operates by one simple but powerful rule – stop everything and talk it out. Rather than rushing past disagreements or handing down quick punishments, teachers and students pause their regular activities to work through problems together using carefully structured dialogue. The approach requires patience and commitment from everyone involved, but the results are transforming how young people learn to navigate disagreements in their lives.

Students practice conflict resolution through role-playing exercises that teach them to express their feelings, listen to others, and find solutions that work for everyone involved. The school believes that learning how to resolve conflicts peacefully is just as important as math or reading, making it a core part of the educational experience rather than an afterthought. This method helps children develop emotional intelligence and communication skills that will serve them throughout their entire lives. The program is proving that when schools invest time in teaching students how to handle conflict constructively, everyone benefits from a more peaceful and understanding community.
