   of age whose child commits the crime of possession of a firearm on
   school property may be fined not exceeding Two Hundred Dollars
   ($200.00), or ordered to perform community service not exceeding forty
   (40) hours or both such fine and community service. To satisfy any

   which benefits the school said child attends. Said penalty shall be an
   administrative penalty and shall not be recorded on the custodial
