According to school administrators, the option would be the last resort for parents and faculty members if other means of discipline do not work.
Cassville R-IV School District Superintendent Dr. Merlyn Johnson said the policy change is a result of a survey that was sent to staff, students and parents in May.
Johnson said the change would give principals one more disciplinary option before students receive more serious punishments such as suspensions. Johnson said he understands there will be different views on the decision, and the district respects the opinions of parents who choose not to opt-in.
