Education Week: New Analysis Bolsters Case Against Suspension, Researchers Say

One of the findings researchers from the Civil Rights Project/Proyecto Derechos Civiles at the University of California, Los Angeles, labeled “most disturbing” was that 36 percent of all black male students with disabilities were suspended out of school during the 2009-10 school year. The study analyzed data from about 85 percent of all public schools in the country.
