Expulsions can also affect families in significant ways. Siblings of the expelled may not be able to change schools for various reasons, impacting the ways said siblings and parents may interact with the old school and the new one for the expelled. Shared lunch accounts, transportation, extracurricular participation, and childcare can all be affected in negative ways.

So, I assert that in this case, an expulsion is too severe a punishment for the perpetrators. There are ways to reestablish the physical and mental safety of the victims, teach the perpetrators a lesson about cyberbullying and sexual harassment, and mitigate the negative externalities by choosing a more appropriate punishment.

The kids need to be expelled not because it's the most appropriate punishment for them, but so the can create a safe environment for their victims. Like I don't know how you can expect the students who were photographed to be able to be comfortable in an environment where they have to continually interact with their photographer.

Sure, but at no point in that scenario should the school enact disciplinary actions as no violations happened on school grounds. At best, that would necessitate the boys and victims be separated from any shared classes. Your actions outside of school and school functions, are beyond the purview of the school.

I agree that this is a good teaching moment for all involved. I'm just baffled by the idea that a school should have any authority to enact punishment over activities outside of their domain. Discipline should be at the parents discretion. The possibility of no punishment is not a reason for the school to intervene in a parents authority.
so if this were a boys went to one school, girls to another, even though it was severe enough that the school caught wind of it- there should be no intervention, save for from the parents? Are you serious?
If you make racist comments as an adult and it gets back to your employer, they have every right to fire you. If you go to college and are arrested- on or off grounds, there is the possibility of expulsion.
while I understand these are kids, that doesnt excuse them from being bound by a code of conduct, which is VERY real, even outside school hours.

Hell no they shouldn't be expelled. Its the fault of the school as much as the students for not knowing that was wrong. Are there any guidlines spelled out about this in the school rules of conduct? if not then that should be added.

Cell phones should be banned. Anyone caught with one should be suspended on the spot. The kids should all made to do community service along with what ever punishment they have available. Suspension I guess is okay but I think should be held in reserve for any further offense against the preventative measures made.

I see that the need for school to be a safe place . Expelling them does not bother me.

I am deeply disturbed that these girls feel "they must be punished and made an example of and there is no other option".

A petition and demanding expulsion seems like rote thinking where innovation is needed.

Note that the petition did not come from any of the victims. It's an uninvolved classmate outraged on their behalf.

Don't see how this would help, as apparently none of the pictures were taken on school grounds. How does banning phones at school prevent a girl's butt being photographed (to pick one possible scenario) while in line at Starbucks?

Obviously they should be supported and resources should be made available to help them out. I just don't see how punishing these boys worse will fix anything. It's part of the issue we have in this country generally. Too much focus on retribution and not enough about actually fixing the harm.

Also you are stretching about the part time job thing. Can you even show that this had any effect on anyone outside the school itself? And it's not the boys fault for the media slandering the girls. Keep focused on the issue at hand. Help over hurt.

I'd rather see them do like 100 hours of community service. Ruin their weekends for the next several months and force them to help others.

It's natural for people to talk about the appearances of their fellow students. This behavior isn't inherently a problem. It becomes a problem when other, more harmful patterns of behavior are the norm - taking photos without consent, harvesting social media pictures to turn into literal objects they can pass around, and other toxic expressions likely to cultivate dangerous environments for more than just the direct victims of that behavior. Schools are heavily incentivized to intervene in these situations.

The problem is that most remediation tools available to schools - detention, suspension - doesn't really do jack shit for these situations. Even if the boys responsible were perfect pictures of contrite rehabilitation, it doesn't stop the stigma that will follow these 8th and 9th graders will face for the rest of their time in schooling. If the concern is that expulsion will prevent the boy's opportunity to rehabilitate and reintegrate, then I would imagine people should be pushing for tools which properly afford that opportunity to the students while also respecting the victim's needs for being protected from the perpetrators.

You can't adequately achieve this just by shuffling some schedules around, sticking them in ISS for a month or two, and hoping for the best. There doesn't have to be a perfect solution here, but there should at least be a solution that isn't woefully inadequate at achieving the things we agree to be important. (Protect the victims, ensure the kids can rehabilitate, and above all preserve the right to everyone's education in a safe environment)

I wonder if some of the disagreement in these threads is due to some people being from cities with multiple high schools, while others are from places that only have one high school. Expulsion was usually reserved for repeat serious offenders in my old high school, likely because it was the only high school in town. If you got expelled, you couldn't just go to another school, you were basically forced to drop out.

That's ultimately what I'm driving at, yes. Though in absolute fairness, I don't think that charter schools or online classes are a good solution given the massive amount of problems with how they're run. But to dive into that is really getting into the weeds, when the core question at hand is first protecting the victims and second affording the kids to reintegrate and rehabilitate. In that order.

On top of that, in some districts, expulsions are district wide by law, so you cant go to another school, you have to go to a school in another district entirely.

Whether thats the case or not, if the expelled student has siblings thats an extra burden on the parents, as are they going to move the other kids too, or have to take their kids to two different schools, etc.

With all due respect, what exactly to you fix your framework on if you equate losing your job to being sent to prison...? All offenders should be in most cases afforded the opportunity to offer restitution for their crimes and reintegrate into society. Your response would only make sense if they were somehow barred from ever seeking employment ever again, or that expulsion will mean these kids are denied their legal right to an education.

This is a bizarre way to engage with the comparison.

I didn't mean to directly compare expulsion to prison. I was comparing expulsion to being fired, not being hyperbolic. We don't send kids to prisons for any reason. My point was that there are different standards of consequences for adults versus adolescents.

I made an earlier point that expulsion has effects outside of just relocating a student to a new school, and these effects can be a huge financial and logistical burden for families and should be considered when deciding a punishment.

I don't think suspending the boys and supporting the girls equates to "ignoring the victims." Other failsafes can also be implemented, like ensuring the perpetrators and victims aren't in the same classes (since they are apparently in different grades, this shouldn't be difficult to accomplish). Expulsion isn't the only way to support the girls here.

If I was suggesting they be held to the same standards as adults, then I would have suggested they face charges. Because adults doing this should definitely face legal consequences.

You can just stop the ridiculous line comparing prisons to expulsion right here though. It hasn't been a good or well thought out argument earlier in the topic, and it's not any better when you choose to do it

Expulsion might not be unwarranted depending on the specific details, but I wouldn't instantly jump to it. It really depends on history of the students, if it was equal blame for all or if there were specific people in charge, and the exact nature of the pictures. As long as it's within the upper bounds of extremely fucking creepy, sounds more like a massive reeducation, long term punishment kind of thing.

In-school suspension or out-of-school suspension for anywhere from a week to a month. Police notified, any further incidence leads to expulsion hearing and sexual harassment charges filed. Police talk to students about the severity of their actions.

Students involved are removed from sports/extracurriculars and classes relocated where applicable.

Students involved are not allowed to have phones on campus, for the rest of the year or even the rest of High School. Parents may be required to moderate/delete student social media accounts as part of deal to stay with school.

Retaliation towards victims either at school or on social media will be seen as further harassment and leads to expulsion hearings.

These are all examples of actions my district have taken in similar situations. Expulsion is usually the ultimatum and not the first response (unless a student is severely harmed or threatened, which in this case I do not personally think they are since no nudity was involved). These actions from the school include harsh consequences for the perpetrators and create a safer environment for the victims while avoiding negative externalities that can come with expulsion. But expulsion is still on the table if anything else happens (continuation or retaliation).
