Eliminate the prohibition regarding suspending a student that is in prekindergarten through second grade

Summary

LB 1053 changes state school‑discipline statutes so that principals can suspend children in prekindergarten through second grade for up to five days, just like older students. It updates expulsion rules for firearm possession and clarifies long‑term suspension offenses, then repeals the older language. The change would give districts more flexibility to address serious misconduct among the youngest students.
