Discipline and Punish by: Annette Fuentes

Many students get punished for their acts that they commit. Students in young ages were punished by horsing around and just being a young person. For example, Bryson a young black student gets caught acting like he has a real gun but its actually his hand, gets punished by the principal. The pricipal decideds to suspend him. Many of these students tend to become dropouts because many schools have a zero tolerance rule, which means that the first time you commit something bad no matter how bad it is you get the same punishment as others. These kids being dropouts become criminals. A large number of incidents are occuring because many school are decreasing their tolerance for students who commit acts that seem like a threat to others. In conclusion, Annette Fuentes shows that schools with zero tolarence are causing students to be criminals and dropouts.
