Quote:
In fact, if a student has been expelled because of a weapons or drug violation the expulsion is to be honored in all Kansas public school.
Kansas does allow a neighboring school district to refuse admittance to a student serving a disciplinary expulsion, however the decision is discretionary on the part of the receiving school district.

Many school districts allow the expelled student to enroll providing the student and the students parent / guardian agrees to sign an agreement similar to a last chance agreement, waiving certain due process rights afforded other students.
