SB 31 - This act allows a school district to suspend a student who has been convicted of a felony criminal violation or has been charged with, or adjudicated to have committed a violent felony criminal violation, regardless of whether that student is prosecuted as an adult or as a juvenile.

Further, this act changes provisions in the Safe Schools Act by expanding the list of offenses for which a pupil may be prohibited from participating in regular programs of instruction to include any felony offense pursuant to Chapter 566, RSMo (sexual offenses) and Chapter 567, RSMo (prostitution).

This act is identical to SCS/SBs 937 & 936 (2002).
