The district removed one student to alternative settings instead of suspending or expelling them. This equates to less than one percent of the 573 students enrolled.
Students were expelled for eight incidents with violence without physical injury, five incidents with alcohol and tobacco, one incident with drugs.
The district reported that most in-school suspensions were given for unspecified reasons, of which there were five. There were four incidents of tobacco. For seven incidents, students were suspended for one to two days.
Boy students received 13 suspensions, while nine girls were suspended.
There were 14 elementary or middle school students, and eight high school students suspended in 2020-2021 school year.
The district reported that most out-of-school suspensions were given for violence without injury, of which there were eight. There were three incidents of unspecified reasons. For 11 incidents, students were suspended for three to four 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.
