Select a column heading to sort. Blank means the publisher did not report that area; "suppressed" means the publisher withheld a small number; "not shown" means this site withheld it (fewer than 30 survey respondents).
The county column comes from the district-to-county table, for reading county measures alongside district ones. State charter schools and other statewide units have no single county.

Source: GOEWS K-12 Student Discipline Dashboard data (DISCIPLINE_SCHOOL_CHARACTERISTICS). District and school rates are published. The statewide figure is the enrollment-weighted mean of district rates; it matches the dashboard's published statewide rate (6.3% for 2024-25) when rounded. Out-of-school suspension only; the same file carries in-school suspension and expulsion rates, which can be added.
