Not surprisingly, schools with higher minority populations have higher rates of suspension.

The stats are surely accurate; whether more or less suspensions should have been handed out is a different question.

Many schools are not dealing with it. It's entirely subjective. I've seen a kid punch another kid in the face and return to class, and the next week a kid bring medication on purpose with no consequence, and then a kid that yelled and ran around got suspended.

Are they better off at home (in some cases with no supervision) or on the streets or back in school. No matter what happened, the schools are more often being forced to deal with it.

It doesn’t. I have had elementary students in knock down fights this year. Some have been in 3 or 4. In each case they were back to the room within the half hour.

Fcps has restorative justice now.
Restorative justice means limited punishment and talking about how you feel about your rule breaking and bad behavior.

The middle and high school numbers were combined within each pyramid, including those that have secondary schools.
