Okay it's been a while since I went to high school, and I didn't get into serious trouble when I was there. But the MC in my YA story gets into a fist fight in the halls. He goes to a medium-sized, public high school in a lower/ middle class area in the USA.
How might he be disciplined? Would he get sent to the principal's office or the dean's? Would he get detention? Suspended?
In another scene, the MC and a friend are in more minor trouble (they've damaged laboratory equipment in a chemistry class). If the teacher didn't want to handle it himself, who would he send them to? I think in my school it would have been the dean.
Any personal experiences (especially recent one) from people who got into trouble in high school are welcome.
Thanks,
Caroline
