Student Discipline

This category captures information about student discipline incidents and disciplinary actions. The Student Discipline category includes the following data views and resources:

Note: Student Discipline resources are only published for public schools.

Discipline Incident

This view captures information about discipline incidents successfully published to DPI. This represents an occurrence of an infraction ranging from a minor behavioral problem that disrupts the orderly functioning of a school or classroom (such as tardiness) to a criminal act that results in the involvement of a law enforcement official (such as robbery). A single event (for example, a fight) is one incident regardless of how many perpetrators or victims are involved. Discipline incidents are events classified as warranting discipline action. The layout includes the School Name, Incident Identifier, Last Publish Date, and Publishing ID.

Student Discipline Incidents

This view captures information about student discipline incidents successfully published to DPI. This association indicates those students who were victims, perpetrators, witnesses, and/or reporters for a discipline incident. The layout includes the School Name, Student Number, Student Name, Incident Identifier, Incident Date, Primary Incident, State Student Number, Last Publish Date, and Publishing ID.

Note: This resource is added as a dependency to the DisciplineActions resource. If no behavior is associated to an incident but some actions directly mapped to a student are added, then such actions are not published. If this resource fails to publish, the disciplineAction continues to remain in dependency and does not report an error.
