Actually for most schools a 3-day suspension is about the second worst thing that happens to you short of expulsion.

Expulsion isn't gonna happen unless someone brings in a weapon/uses a weapon or puts someone in an extended hospital stay.

I mean shit, someones ignorant and a bully, you your respond by permanently removing them from education from a school?

Doesn't really send the right message. 

EDIT: And I went to school in ohio.  So yeah, a 3 Day suspension is pretty serious.

Usually a punch gets you one day...

if Your in a two way fight, the agressor gets 3 days, the person defending themselves gets 1.

Or at least that was standard MO when I was in school way back when.

Yeah, I guess the bully is more important than the victims and their safety, right? It's more important to send out the message that you can beat someone up, and you'll get 3 days off from school for it, than that school is a place where you're suppose to feel safe, and if someone beats you up they'll be taken care of, no?

Great way of thinking. Guess that's why bullying is such a minor problem in American schools these days.

And punishing the victim for defending him/herself. Way to go! You guys have such a way with dealing with these issues.

Hey, the kids mom is perfectly free to press charges via the police.

Holding a kid out of school for a long period of time is only going to make him dumber, angrier and even more dangerous, and considering that schooling is MANDATORY until like 16 or 18... that just means things would be even wrose for whoever he bullies.
