Maybe but since everyone says MCPS doesn't do this it shouldn't be a problem since it doesn't happen.

As if. We have a kid who's been suspended three times in the last couple weeks.

For what?

(To be clear, "we" is the school, not my kid.) Two for fighting and one other too identifying.

I can't believe they're handing out all these suspensions! It's so unfair!


I thought McKnight stopped this persecution.

My kid got suspended in 9th grade for a fight that he did not start. The first full year back from COVID. The kids were a wreck.

At the time, it made me wonder if the landscape had changed a bit, and colleges might recognize that kids were in turmoil and cut some slack. But I have a friend who teaches in Carroll County and they say kids are extremely well behaved and fights are very rare. Poor behavior is rare.

We shall see what happens when my kid starts applying to colleges.

Not at all. Probably not even suspensions in high school.

Are you a kid or a parent? By the time you exit school it's time to learn that you don't really have a Permanent Record.

Not unless it becomes habitual.

The only thing from MS that colleges see is a few HS level courses taken. So if the suspensions affect grades, maybe.
