1Opinion of the CourtGerrard, J.
NATURE OF CASE
Porcha Busch was expelled from school by the Omaha Public School District (OPS) after a fight with another student during which Busch accidentally struck and injured an assistant principal who was attempting to restrain Busch and break up the fight. Busch argues that OPS exceeded its statutory authority by adopting the rule pursuant to which Busch was expelled. The district court disagreed and upheld the expulsion. Because we determine that OPS acted within its statutory authority, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
