Ray Knight, a middle school student, was suspended for three days due to unexcused absences. Although school district procedures required telephone notification and a prompt written notice by mail to his parents, the school only sent a notice with the student, who threw it away. Thus, Ray’s parents were unaware of his suspension. During his first day of suspension, Ray was accidentally shot while visiting a friend’s house.
