At least 25 states and the District of Columbia allow schools to suspend students for “willful defiance”, according to the LawAtlas Project’s Policy Surveillance Portal. This week, California became the first state in the US to ban such suspensions for all students, expanding a pre-existing ban on the disciplinary practice for students in grades kindergarten through eighth grade. The new law, signed by the governor, Gavin Newsom, last Sunday, could represent a model for how other states approach reforming disciplinary practices, which disproportionately affect Black and Latino students, as well as those with disabilities and those from low-income backgrounds.

My thoughts: Another example of one student being able to drive the policy for an entire district because they can't regulate & suspending them violates their rights. The question no one seems willing or able to answer is; What about the rights of every other student in the classroom who is being disturbed by the child who can't regulate?

What are your thoughts about this new law?
