Ok. Another ignorant question from me (if being in Canada for less than 6 years, is an excuse, please take it. btw, I'm humbled and honoured to be a new Canadian).

Background.
My wife volunteers at our community elementary, and there is one kid (in grade 1) who has no respect for faculty or classmates. He is verbally and physically abusive, and if he does not like something, he will simply walk out of the classroom. He has been sent to the office several times, and my wife was telling me last night, that yesterday he got sent home.

My question.
Can a child be expelled from public elementary school?
If so, where do they go?
Will the school board take him at another school? (this school is a Catholic school board school)
Also, can they flunk 1st grade?

Thanks, and again, my apologies for my ignorance.
