[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The offense could not have been that minor if the suspension was for 10 days. [/quote]

Yeah, ten days?  My DS was physically attacked and assaulted by another student, resulting in a concussion.  And that kid's suspension was half that.[/quote]

Not OP, but in my experience there is no correlation to the severity of the activity to the length of the suspension.  It's entirely up to the the Principal or Vice Principal making the decision. Some are more strict than others even within the same HS.[/quote]

Yes but a suspension out of line with the offense can be appealed (well, any suspension can be appealed).  If a principal gives a two-week suspension to a student for something relatively minor, the parents can appeal it to the principal's supervisor.  The counties have guidelines.[/quote]

OP here.  Anything in our county (local) that is ten days or less, is considered a "minor" violation, for reference.  It was a (very) minor violation, that is not up for debate, nor is the violation itself.

The question is: will the colleges know?

The offense sounds worse than it is, but it is definitely minor, and the school, etc. has already acknowledged that.  It is more of a "token" charge.  ie: something had to be charged, but it does sound worse than it is. [/quote]
