What these numbers mean
- In-school suspension removes a student from class but keeps them on campus.
- Out-of-school suspension removes a student from school entirely, typically 1–10 days.
- Expulsion is the most severe — students are removed from their district, usually for the rest of the year or longer.
- Law enforcement referrals mean a police officer was called; an arrest means the student was taken into custody.
