The legislative bill S.F. No. 1022 proposes changes to the educational policies concerning disciplinary actions for early education students in Minnesota. Specifically, it aims to protect children in preschool programs (like Head Start and voluntary prekindergarten) and students from kindergarten through grade 3 from being dismissed from school. This means that these young students cannot be expelled or excluded from school easily. However, the bill allows for short-term dismissals in special cases and emphasizes that more severe disciplinary actions, like expulsions or exclusions, should only be considered when all other support options have been tried and failed, and only if there is a severe and ongoing threat to safety.
