According to the report, the district expelled or suspended 12 students during the year. This equates to one percent of the 820 students enrolled.
Students were expelled for eight incidents with violence without physical injury, one incident with a dangerous weapon, other than a firearm.
The district reported that most in-school suspensions were given for violence without injury, of which there were four. There were three incidents of unspecified reasons. For six incidents, students were suspended for one to two days.
Boy students received 10 suspensions, while two girls were suspended.
There were 12 elementary or middle school students suspended in 2021-22 school year.
The district reported that most out-of-school suspensions were given for violence without injury, of which there were four. For two 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.
