Maryland School Discipline Laws: Handling Multiple Suspensions
Question:
What should I do if my child is suspended multiple times?
Answer:
If your child is facing multiple suspensions at a Maryland school, the principal must contact you promptly. The school should provide intervention and support for your child’s behavior. If the principal decides on a suspension longer than 10 days or expulsion, they must report it to the superintendent. You have the right to appeal to the local board if an extended suspension or expulsion is decided. The school must provide reasons for any delays in the process and denial of reentry.
