Question:

What’s the difference between exclusion and suspension?

Answer:

Under Maryland school law, exclusion refers to denial of attendance to a student who is currently expelled from another school system for a similar period. Suspension involves a student being removed from the school premises during school hours and being unable to participate in school-sponsored activities. Both exclusion and suspension are disciplinary actions that can be taken by school authorities based on the circumstances.
