Question:

Can my child get expelled for fighting?

Answer:

Your child cannot be expelled for engaging in physical altercations unless the behavior creates an imminent threat of harm or extreme disruption. The school must follow formal disciplinary procedures and consider other consequences before resorting to expulsion. It is important to review the school’s student code of conduct to understand your child’s rights in such situations.
