Okay kiddo, let me explain.
Sometimes in school or on a team, there are some kids who don’t always behave well. They might say mean things or break the rules. When this happens, the school or the team might decide that they need to be kicked out or expelled to teach them a lesson.
However, there are some rules that make it difficult to expel a student. These rules are called impediments to expulsion.
For example, imagine if a kid did something bad, but it was because they were sick or had a disability. It wouldn’t be fair to kick them out for something they can’t control, right? That’s an impediment to expulsion.
Another example is if the school didn’t give the student enough support or help before they got in trouble. If the student was struggling in class or had problems at home, and the school didn’t try to help them, it wouldn’t be fair to kick them out without helping them first. That’s another impediment to expulsion.
Basically, an impediment to expulsion is a rule that stops schools or teams from just kicking someone out without understanding their situation and making sure it’s fair. It’s like a safety net to make sure everyone gets treated fairly and has a chance to fix their mistakes.
