School Expulsions in Ohio

Cincinnati wins! The distinction of having the highest rate and number of expelled students in the state of Ohio goes to the Cincinnati Public School System. And, it wasn't even a close race. Cleveland, Columbus, Toledo, and other cities were far behind.

At first glance, the strong enforcement of discipline in the Cincinnati schools seems like a good idea, however, it remains to be seen whether expelling so many kids from school has any long-term detrimental impact.
