The ACLU of Washington has compiled a list of resources to inform the public of the rights of public school students in Washington state. Different rules may apply in different states and for students in private schools, tribal schools, and public colleges and universities.
If you or someone that you know has out of class, suspended, or expelled from a public school in Washington state because of behavior that could have been addressed other ways, we want to hear from you. Please visit our school discipline page and tell us your story.
