A teacher can remove a student from class if the student interferes with the teacher's ability to teach or engages in disruptive or abusive behavior. If removed, a student can be suspended for conduct punishable as a felony, within 300 feet of school, or at a school event for students under age 6. Students under age 10 cannot be expelled. More serious violations can result in expulsion. The DAEP is an alternative education program for violations of the Texas Penal Code, with student status reviews every 120 days. The JJAEP is for the juvenile justice system.
