My son was caught "sexting" with a female student at school. What type of punishment is he looking at?

With the advances in technology over the last generation kids have the ability to instantly record themselves on video and send that recording to many different people all in a matter of seconds. Unfortunately, that has led to many juveniles getting in hot water with their schools. In California, Senate Bill 919 passed in 2011 which sexting is defined as “sending or receiving sexually explicit pictures or video by means of an electronic act.” The law allows school districts to discipline students for their actions while on school property, on their way to or from school, at school-sponsored events, and during lunch breaks and gives districts the legal power to expel students for sexting. While the law has been delayed by funding issues in 2012 it does highlight that the legislature is treating sexting very seriously. Expulsion hearings can be contested with the help of an attorney and anybody who has a child facing expulsion should consult with an experienced school expulsion attorney.
