Code of Student Conduct – Secondary
EXPULSION
A principal may request that the Superintendent recommend to the School
Board that a student be expelled. Principals may take this action when they
have exhausted less severe administrative corrective strategies, or when they
have considered those alternatives and rejected them as inappropriate in the
given situation.
If a student who is currently enrolled in an exceptional student education
program or who has a Section 504 Plan commits a disruptive act of sufficient
severity that warrants a recommendation for expulsion, the student must be
referred immediately to the Regional Center Assistant Superintendent and
the Regional Center Exceptional Student Placement Committee.
Only the School Board can approve an expulsion. The maximum period of
time for an expulsion may not exceed the remainder of the term or school
year, the summer session, plus one additional school year of attendance. An
expelled student is entitled to due process, including a hearing.
WORK BACK PROGRAM
IN LIEU OF EXPULSION
The School Board has authorized the Superintendent to modify the expulsion
process and allow staff the authority to develop a Work Back Program in
Lieu of Expulsion, consistent with existing guidelines, for all students who
are presently being recommended to the Board for expulsion, except in those
cases for that procedures do not allow for a Work Back Program. Students
recommended for expulsion as a result of Level V infractions will be
ineligible for the Work Back Program in Lieu of Expulsion.
