Parent involvement with their child's education is very important. The "Parent Lunch Day" is a great idea because it does promote this involvement in their education, but I fear it may cause some tension if a child's parents are unable to attend that day; however, it could be solved by the parents asking another parent to bring lunch for their child. Suspension is a very serious punishment and there are only certain circumstances that it should be used. I think that the teen court is a very interesting way to decide the students' punishments. I can see it being very effective in determining a punishment that is appropriate for each individual circumstance.
