Ever feel stuck when it comes to classroom discipline? You're not alone. In this episode of The Lead Serve Teach, D.Paul Miller shares a real story from his own classroom and breaks down how discipline doesn’t have to be about control—it can actually build stronger relationships.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Why discipline isn’t just about keeping order—it’s a chance to build trust and lead.
