HEARING EXAMINER'S CONVEYANCE LETTER TO THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS 

(Date) 

(Name of the Superintendent of Schools} 

Superintendent of Schools 

Banner County School District No. 1 

School Street Harrisburg, NE 69345-0005 

Re: (Name of Student} 

Recommendation for Expulsion 

Dear (Name of Superintendent of Schools): 

Enclosed are my findings and recommendation regarding the proposal to expel (Name of Student) from Banner County School District No. 1. Based on the information that was presented at the hearing, I have recommended that (Name of Student) be expelled for the remainder of the 20__-__ school year. 

By statute, you are responsible for deciding what sanction to impose, if any Section §79-282(2) of the Nebraska statutes permits you to ''change, revoke, or impose the sanction recommended by the hearing examiner”. If you change the sanction, you may not impose one that is 'more severe' than my recommendation. 

However, as I have recommended expulsion, any alternative sanction would be less severe than the recommendation. Your decision will take effect when it and a copy of my findings and recommendations are communicated to (Name of Student) and his/her parents. Nebraska Statute §79-283(1) states that you may notify the parents of your decision by certified or registered mail or by personal delivery to the student or the student's parents or guardian. If you have any questions about any of these findings or my recommendation, please let me know. 

Yours truly, 

(Name of Hearing Examiner) 

Enclosure
