Time of Expulsion

• An expulsion may be made immediately if the reasons are urgent.

• Only in exceptional cases shall expulsion of an eighth grade student who has been in the school one or more years be allowed. 

• If an expulsion is to take place during the last quarter of the school year or during the last semester in the case of an eighth grade student, prior approval of the Department of Catholic Schools is required before the expulsion can take effect.

• If such action is contemplated, approval shall be obtained before the announcement of the final decision to the parents. (This part wasn’t in there, but wasn’t sure if you added it.)

Reporting of Expulsions

• Even if they occur at the end of the school year, all expulsions are to be reported by phone to the assistant superintendent at the Department of Catholic Schools within 24 hours and subsequently submitted in writing.​

• The school shall immediately notify the county office of education of expulsions. A copy of the Cumulative Pupil Record should be held until requested.
