Give schools not the department of justice the ability to file for a formal expulsion from the system, require a judge and treat it like a criminal trial.
Group of bullies: Student with neurological condition is a bully! he needs to be expelled!
Aloof administrator: really?
Group of bullies: He has a neurological condition! he's probably going to shoot up the school!
Aloof administrator: *gasp!* You're right! We better forcibly lock him in a small room for our protection!
stuff like this happened to me all the time when I was in school. granted the students were not usually involved, but bullies already take advantage of the safe schools act, they'll take advantage of your proposal.

The Sociopath: Hey, (as he looks at a group of coworkers doing their job). Which one of our department do you think would go postal?
Coworkers: Dunno?
The Sociopath: Well, how 'bout that guy. (pointing to the white male that is too busy with his work to join in the conversation.)
Coworkers: Yeah, maybe.
The Sociopath: Hey. (Calling out to the white male busy with work). Do you own a gun?
