BILL NUMBER:S1516A
TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the education law, in relation to the
enforcement of the suspension of pupils from school
PURPOSE: This legislation, the Faculty/Student Safety Act, authorizes
school districts to enforce and continue in effect the suspension of a
pupil ordered by the school district that the pupil previously
attended.
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Paragraph c of subdivision 3 of section 3214 of
the education law is amended by adding a new subparagraph 3 to
authorize school districts to enforce and continue in effect the
suspension of a pupil ordered by the school district that the pupil
previously attended if the suspension was the result of the pupil
being physically violent, a sexual assault, or a weapons possession or
use on school grounds.
JUSTIFICATION: There currently exists a loophole within the New York
State Education Law in the area of safety. Presently, school districts
do not have the right to honor a suspension issued by another school
district. A student who is under a superintendent suspension or
long-term suspension from another school district can relocate and
immediately enter the school district of his or her new residence.
This practice is used to find a way around the suspension and
potentially puts student sand faculty in the new school at risk.
