More than 3,600 New York public school students were physically restrained or isolated in “timeouts” in at least 20,000 incidents last year, including some cases that violated state regulations. That’s according to the New York State Education Department, which has required schools to report these incidents to the state for the first time following a Times Union investigation in 2022 that found widespread use of the controversial behavioral techniques. The newspaper’s reporting revealed that the practices have resulted in injuries and deaths to students and staff across the U.S.
