The study focuses on the perceptions of school personnel (high school principals, high school teachers, athletic directors) concerning the correlation between 1) changing the length of suspension on dropouts and academic performance and 2) allowing rehearsal and practice during periods of ineligibility on dropouts and academic performance. The relationship between geographical locations (community types) in the region of the study, and perceptions of Senate Bill 1's impact on dropout and student academic performance was also examined. Respondents shared the view that Senate Bill 1 had produced a positive impact on dropouts in the region in which the study was conducted. There was strong support among the respondents for allowing ineligible students to practice and rehearse. The respondents shared the view that shorter suspension periods are better for students. The perception from all locations indicated that the three-week suspension period was acceptable in Region XIII and produced noticeable differences in student behavior. Findings of the study include: 1. Allowing ineligible students to practice and rehearse with the team or group helps reduce negative behavior at school; 2. Shorter suspension periods (three weeks instead of six) were viewed as better for students because there were additional opportunities to compete after regaining eligibility; 3. Shorter suspension periods motivated some students to stay in school; 4. Male students were more likely to be ineligible while participating in extracurricular activities; African-Americarn…
