💨 Abstract

Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) will implement stricter punishments for violent acts starting in the 2025-2026 school year. Bomb threats and attacks on staff will automatically result in suspensions and possible expulsion (tier four to five). Theft of $500 or more will also face tougher penalties (tier three to five). Tier one infractions will include minor issues like excessive talking. Some board members raised concerns about subjectivity in enforcement.
