Disciplinary Incident Reporting System

The Disciplinary Incident Reporting System (DIRS) reporting system enables both the department and school districts to comply with state and federal reporting requirements for suspensions, expulsions, special education and dangerous weapons. DIRS is a web-based, password protected system through which all public school districts must report disciplinary incidents that result in either suspension or expulsion. This page contains important information about DIRS including deadlines and announcements.
