Student Fair Access to School Act and School Discipline UpdateMonday, December 9 - Monday, December 16, 2019

DCPS is in the process of rewriting Chapter 25 of the Student Fair Access to School Act. Chapter 25 addresses the DC Municipal Regulations for school discipline. Families may visit https://dcps.dc.gov/chapter25 for more information. If your child attends a charter school, Chapter 25 does not apply. Your child's school discipline policy is in the handbook. You should be able to find the handbook on the school's website. If you cannot, the Public Charter School Board (PCSB) has put most handbooks online. You can find them at https://dcpcsb.org/compare-schools under the "Student Makeup" section of a school's profile. You are encouraged to let the PCSB know if schools are missing from the site. |
