The consequences for violating a zero-tolerance school policy can vary depending on the specific rules and regulations of each school or school district. However, common consequences include:

A. Expulsion - This is one of the most severe consequences and involves permanently removing a student from the school. Expulsion often follows serious offenses or repeated violations of school policy.

B. Suspension - This is a temporary exclusion from school. Suspension can be either in-school (the student must remain on school premises in a specific area) or out-of-school (the student must stay at home). The length of a suspension can vary from a few days to several weeks.

C. Corporal Punishment - While rare and banned in many places, some school districts in certain regions still allow corporal punishment, which might involve physical discipline. It is important to note that this practice is highly controversial and is illegal in many countries around the world.

D. Removal from sports teams or extracurricular activities - Students might also be removed from sports teams or barred from participating in other school-related activities as a punishment.

Out of these options, corporal punishment is often contested and not widely used as a disciplinary measure in many parts of the world due to ethical and legal concerns.
