Question:

How can I prevent my child from getting suspended?

Answer:

To help prevent your child from receiving a suspension at their school in Maryland, you can work with the school to provide intervention and support for your child’s behavior. The school should offer positive behavior interventions, a behavior intervention plan, and referrals to support teams if your child is disruptive. Make sure your child is informed of any in-school suspension reasons and has a chance to respond before it starts. If your child faces suspension, you have the right to appeal any decisions about their education program.
