Trustees with the Monterey Peninsula Unified School District will have a study session on Wednesday to learn more about expulsion hearings. Presenting will be Dora Dome, law adjunct professor at both Mills College and the University of California at Berkeley.
It promises to be an interesting presentation. The topic of discipline, particularly among black students, is increasingly being discussed nationwide, with some districts changing their practices to prevent black students from being expelled as frequently as they are. Civil rights advocates claim expulsions and detentions start students on the path of delinquency.
The meeting will take place at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday at the district's office board room,700 Pacific Street, Monterey.
