| 520 | |a As required by Tennessee law, this report examines the state's zero-tolerance disciplinary data collected by the Tennessee Department of Education for school years 1999-00, 2000-01, and 2001-02. The first section displays statewide zero-tolerance statistics. The second section focuses on the zero-tolerance statistics of Tennessee's five major urban systems. Both sections include data on the age, grade level, education status, gender, and race of zero-tolerance offenders; nature of violations; and disposition of offenses. The report contains the following conclusions, among others: Although zero-tolerance policies were implemented to deter students from committing specific offenses, zero-tolerance offenses have increased at a significantly faster rate than student enrollment. Less than 1 percent of all students attending Tennessee schools committed zero-tolerance offenses during each of the 3 school years examined. Drug offenses continue to be the largest category of zero-tolerance offenses. Most zero-tolerance offenders are male. Students in the ninth grade were three times more likely to commit a zero-tolerance offense that students in other grades. Most of the urban systems have expelled significant percentages of their zero-tolerance offenders without placement. (WFA) | ||
