If he was expelled from one pubic high school, then why was he at another public high school?  What was the offense he was expelled for at Clarksburg?[/quote]

Not that poster. But I do know of one situation where a Wootton student was expelled for drugs and he transferred to Clarksburg. So they are school hopping for some reason. [/quote]

Wow.  I did not know this was occurring.  I thought when a student is expelled, he/she is expelled from all MCPS schools.  There are alternative programs or home services to educate a child in those cases.  These programs might be more expensive than the traditional school setting.  How is passing the trash from one school to another protecting students from violence?[/quote]

Where I went to school, if a student was expelled they could not attend another school in the district. They had to go to an alternative school or another city. They were banned. Why does MCPS let expelled students transfer to another school in the same district? What was the point of expelling them if they can just go to another school? MCPS continues to look bad.[/quote]

Have you read the MCPS Student Code of Conduct.   It is difficult to "expel" a student for good.  Usually it is for 45 days in Blair Ewing and then they are back or sent to another MCPS school.  Many principals' hands are tied when it comes down to suspensions/expulsions.  Many students are recommended for 10 days suspension and recommendation for expulsion, but unless there was prior interventions in place, the student returns to the school.

This!  It is pretty much impossible to 'expel' a student.  We have had a kid assault several other kids at our school, but he has not been expelled.

MCPS is required to educate ALL kids, like it or not.  [/quote]
