[quote]Starting this fall, students who commit the most serious offenses could face long-term suspension or even expulsion. The updated Code of Conduct reclassifies threats and violent actions as Level 4 or 5 violations — the highest disciplinary categories under the district’s new guidelines.

Offenses such as making bomb threats, physically assaulting school personnel, or bringing weapons onto school property will now carry the most severe consequences.

The move comes after several alarming events during the current school year. [/quote][/quote]
Good that physically assaulting teachers will now be considered a serious offense, but WHY isn’t physically assaulting OTHER STUDENTS also reclassified as a Level 4 or 5 violation?

Student safety is EQUALLY as critical as the safety of school staff. Administrators in Rockville MUST correct this ERROR.

Take it up with the BOE.  [/quote]

STUDENT — SAFETY — MATTERS

Why doesn’t the Montgomery County BOE agree?

Most of the BOE don’t have kids in mcps.  They are out of touch. [/quote]
