This bill amends section 79-257 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, which pertains to the Student Discipline Act. The primary change involves the terminology used to refer to students, replacing the term "pupil" with "student." This adjustment aims to harmonize the language within the statute while maintaining the existing provisions regarding the authority of school boards or boards of education to impose disciplinary actions such as emergency exclusions, suspensions, expulsions, or mandatory reassignments for conduct that violates established rules.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision to repeal the original section 79-257, thereby ensuring that the updated language is the only version in effect. The changes reflect a modernized approach to student discipline while ensuring that the procedural requirements outlined in the Student Discipline Act remain intact.
