re: WTF! Alabama legislators pass bill making it even tougher to get rid of bad kids!

I am not sure I agree if it includes a broad definition of exclusionary discipline including just a removal from the classroom. Some advocacy groups seem to include any removal from class. Also not sure what constitutes long term suspension in state.

For expulsion or forced school change I can see this, but I am not sure on suspensions including in school suspensions especially if they have to be allowed back in class to disrupt other students while hearing is set up.
