A teacher may ask the principal to exclude a pupil from class when the grossness of the offense, the persistence of the misbehavior, or the disruptive effect of the violation makes the continued presence of the student in the classroom intolerable.

Procedure for suspension of students from school shall be distributed to students and teachers each year. E.
