Due Process in Student Discipline in Non-Public Schools.
Furst, Lyndon G.
A study to determine the status of disciplinary procedures in nonpublic high schools in Nebraska and Kansas is described in this report. A two-part questionnaire to assess schools' written policies and actual practices was administered to 68 out of 72 private schools, a 94 percent response rate. Findings indicate that the majority of nonpublic schools in the two states under study provide students with procedural due process in disciplinary situations involving suspension and expulsion, although compliance is not legally required. A majority of the schools had written student discipline policies, provided student access to evidence, and empowered the principal as decision maker. Appendices include the questionnaire, correspondence, and survey results. (13 references) (LMI)
