This is a pretty amazing infographic that looks at school suspensions of 9th grade stduents and how it impacts them over their high school career. It turnes "a student suspended even once in ninth grade is less likely to graduate from high school compared to his or her peers who never got in trouble." As well as this infographic the article links The Civil Rights Project and "Two first-of-their-kind reports shed light on the growing use of punitive disciplinary measures and provides research-based alternatives."
