Question:

How long can a student be expelled for?

Answer:

According to Maryland school law, a student can be expelled for 45 school days or longer under specific circumstances, such as posing an imminent threat of serious harm to others. The exclusion should be limited to the shortest period possible, and the student must be provided with educational and behavioral support services for a successful return to their regular academic program.
