They’re real but not that real. Schools keep records on students, and those records potentially make mention of past disciplinary or academic issues. However those aren’t going to colleges or anything and they don’t really exist beyond school. The specifics will vary from school to school, but the idea that “this is going on your permanent record” is mostly used to scare kids.
