The district removed two students to alternative settings instead of suspending or expelling them. This equates to less than one percent of the 316 students enrolled.
Students were expelled for three incidents with violence without physical injury, seven incidents with alcohol and tobacco.
The district reported that most in-school suspensions were given for unspecified reasons, of which there were nine. There was one incident of violence without injury. For eight incidents, students were suspended for one to two days.
Boy students received 23 suspensions, while one girl was suspended.
There were nine elementary or middle school students, and 15 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 seven. There were five incidents of unspecified reasons. For four incidents, students were suspended for one to two 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.
