Summary
The Mt. Diablo Unified School District board approved stipulated expulsions for three students for the 2025–26 term, setting placement and re-admission conditions including counseling hours, credit and GPA requirements and restricted campus access.
The Mt. Diablo Unified School District Board of Education on Aug. 13 approved three stipulated expulsion agreements for students identified in the record as Student 01-26, 2-26 and 3-26. Each motion passed unanimously on roll-call votes of 5–0.
Trustee Mason moved each expulsion and Trustee Lawrence seconded. Board staff said expulsions were for the fall 2025 semester and described the educational placements and conditions required for readmission.
For Student 01-26 the board approved a stipulated expulsion for the 2025–26 school year with placement in the district’s Opportunity Program during the expulsion term. For Students 2-26 and 3-26 the board specified conditions for readmission that included completion of 10 hours of counseling addressing anger management and conflict resolution; evidence of a “successful school experience” at the readmission site (no violations of school rules or Education Code sections 48900 or 48915 and site rules); maintaining a 2.0 grade-point average or better; earning 30 credits; and sustaining at least 90% attendance. The students were ordered to remain away from all Mt. Diablo Unified school campuses and district activities except those at the assigned readmission site until conditions are met.
Board staff clarified that student-trustee participation rules prevented the student board member from voting on these closed-session matters. The motions were recorded as adopted 5–0 with the student trustee noted as not voting on the closed-session expulsions.
