According to the report, the district expelled or suspended 11 students during the year. This equates to three percent of the 382 students enrolled.
Students were expelled for three incidents with violence without physical injury, five incidents with alcohol and tobacco, one incident with a dangerous weapon, other than a firearm.
Boy students received seven suspensions, while four girls were suspended.
There were seven elementary or middle school students, and four high school students suspended in 2020-2021 school year.
The district reported that most out-of-school suspensions were given for tobacco, of which there were five. There were three incidents of violence without injury. For four incidents, students were suspended for two to three days.
Illinois lawmakers enacted laws in 2015 to restrict schools from disciplining a disproportionate number of Black and minority students out of school and into the criminal justice system, often for minor misbehavior.
