By a 14 to 2 margin, the students voted Alex — who is in the process of being diagnosed with autism — out of the class.

"Rawhide" is right. The kid MAY have autism. Even if he does does that give him the right to ruin the class?

“Even if he does does that give him the right to ruin the class?”

Didn’t say it did. But is that any excuse to allow a bunch of 5-year olds to vote against one of their peers?

Let me ask you what such a vote could accomplish. Could it actually expel him from the class? No. Could it be brought up as credible evidence in a board meeting? No.

Could it devestate the emotional well-being of a child?

Absolutely.
