State wants schools to cut suspensions
Blair Ames ― Frederick News-Post

[...]
The state board plans to propose regulations next month that would require school districts to develop a plan to reduce suspensions for nonviolent offenses as well as the number of suspensions of special education and minority students, said James H. DeGraffenreidt Jr., state board president.

The board also proposes eliminating expulsions, except in cases of students who have a firearm.

Reducing suspensions has been an overall goal for the state board, which has been concerned about an increase in suspensions among certain racial and other student groups, MSDE spokesman Bill Reinhard said.
