Illinois schools are going to have to update their discipline policies. A new state law bans zero tolerance rules, and limits long-term suspensions and expulsions. Schools can still remove a student from class or the school, but only after several second chances or a serious infraction. State Senator Kimberly Lightford proposed the plan. She says the goal is to keep as many students as possible in class. The law took effect last week.
