Lyons Township High School District 204 reported 11 suspensions or expulsions for the 2020-2021 school year, according to the latest student discipline report by the Illinois State Board of Education.

Students were expelled for six incidents with drugs.

The district reported that most in-school suspensions were given for drug offense, of which there were three. There were two incidents of unspecified reasons. For two incidents, students were suspended for one to two days.

The district reported that most out-of-school suspensions were given for drug offense, of which there were three. There were three incidents of unspecified reasons. For four incidents, students were suspended for three to four days.

Illinois ranks as the 5th state in terms of the overall number of schools and student enrollment among all states.
