No, the parent is. Worst case, they can be home schooled.

Despite being treated as such, schools are not day cares, and parents still have some responsibility for the upbringing of their children. If the kid misbehaves enough, it is on the parent.

We might want it to work that way, but depending on which state it is, and the she of the child, the district's legal responsibilities might be what the GP wrote.

In places with mandatory public education, parents suing the district for not providing education for their expelled child are likely to win.
