Dear Students, Teachers, and Parents,

We are trying to address the suspensions of students of color. According to the US Department of Education Office for Civil Rights, “Black students are suspended and expelled at a rate three times greater than white students. On average, 5% of white students are suspended,compared to 16% of black students”. After researching, we found out that there is a good chance that kids of color that have been in suspension will have a chance of ending up in jail. Jail can affect them and their families. If you want to stop the racism involved in student suspensions which lead kids like us to jail, Please sign!
