HB 2144 Student expulsions for drug offenses.
Introduced by: Linda T. Puller | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Student expulsions for drug offenses. Modifies the requirement that students must be expelled from school attendance for possession of drugs on school property or at a school-sponsored activity to permit school boards, by regulation, to authorize the division superintendent or his designee to conduct a preliminary review of such cases to determine whether a disciplinary action other than expulsion is appropriate. These regulations must ensure that any such ”other” subsequent disciplinary action is to be taken in accordance with the due process procedures set forth in § 22.1-277. Currently, possession with intent to manufacture, sell or distribute is the basis for required expulsion. A school board, and only a school board, may determine that “special circumstances” exist in these cases and that another disciplinary action is more appropriate. This bill is identical to SB 1135.
