Are you sure administrators care? I live in Oakland, where some of the public schools have absolutely abysmal (academic) statistics. I haven't checked the expulsion statistics. I'm not sure anyone cares.
In my experience, they start caring if the racial composition of the expulsions (or other discipline) does not match the study body.
