[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Expulsion only happens when a child is a major safety threat.  Think bringing in a gun.  That's about the only thing that might get an elementary kid expelled.  Or perhaps a student who sexually assaults another student or teacher, like perhaps an 8th grader.  And before someone says a 13 or 14 year old can't rape a teacher, I'm a 5 foot tall petite woman.  There are 8th graders at least 8 inches taller than me and 50-100 pounds heavier than me.  
What I'm saying is if a kid is expelled, it's for something really horrible and is much deserved. [/quote]

As a fellow teacher, this is correct. It has to be extreme. [/quote]

No one was expelled from DCPS last year.  Not one student.  I would argue some of those things listed above did happen at some school last year.  Teachers are assaulted all the time.  Extreme doesn’t even cover what would have to happen for a kid to be expelled.[/quote]

Where did you find that information? The most recent discipline report that I found on OSSE's website was 2022-23.[/quote]
