VI. Student Disciplinary Hearing
Description:
The Board has received information regarding a student disciplinary issue.  The parents may request we go into closed session to conduct the disciplinary hearing.  Please be reminded, no student names are to be shared in public.

You will find two suggested motions that may be used after discussion of the issue, or the board may formulate their own.  The first suggested motion is recommending a long-term suspension for the rest of the 20245-25 school year and summer; the second motion is recommending expulsion, which carries with it 180 days removed from school.  Mr. Ming will explain further at the meeting.
