School disciplinary policies disproportionately affect Black students

Zero-tolerance discipline has resulted in Black students facing disproportionately harsher punishments than white students in public schools.

Black students represent 31% of school-related arrests.

Black students are suspended and expelled 3x more than white students.

Students suspended or expelled for discretionary violation are nearly three times more likely to be in contact with the juvenile justice system the following year.
