Only applies to grades 1 through 5. Still a bad idea.

  What unholy reason does a fifth grader or God forbid a first grader have to be suspended for?

    Well, when I was younger and in 1st grade, I had someone chasing me and throwing rocks at me. I ran up the nearest slide and stayed at the top and around the side wall where the rocks couldn't reach me. They came up with rocks in hand. I kicked them in the face and sent them back down. I got expelled, nothing happened to the other student, at all, except the bruise on their ass from when they hit the ground and a welt across their chin from where my foot impacted. Sometimes we can do some rotten shit as children.

      That's not "disobeying a teacher", though.

        Kick asked for reasons a student that young might be suspended. They seemed incredulous to the very concept of suspending a child that young, not to suspensions specifically relating to disobeying a teacher.

          Ok, that's fair.

    When I was in third grade one of my peers unsuccessfully tried to stab me with a pocket knife during recess.

      That would still qualify for suspension here. The law just says the student can't be suspended for disobedience. Like, refusing to do the work, or participate. Other forms of active disruption can still be punished as always.

    Don't forget that a fifth grader who has been held back several times can be a teenager
