Introduced Text

Nebraska LB149 would eliminate the prohibition on suspending students in prekindergarten through second grade.

Nebraska LB149 amends the state's student discipline act to eliminate the prohibition on suspending students in prekindergarten through second grade. The bill repeals sections 79-263, 79-265, and 79-267 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska and replaces them with new provisions. It allows school districts to suspend students for various violations, including sexual assault, bullying, and possession of weapons or controlled substances. The bill also mandates that school districts report annually to the State Department of Education on expulsions and the circumstances surrounding them.
