Send "additional documents" about my suspension?

Junior year, I got in-school suspension for one day for a brief physical altercation between another student and myself. I already explained the situation/what I learned/etc in my application, but today I got a really nice letter from my school's assistant principal explaining how I am a very good student and this one incident is not a big deal and how I redeemed myself through something good I did on the day I had ISS and continued to do afterwards. Some of the colleges I am applying to (including USAFA) and Stanford and Columbia allow applicants to upload/update their apps with additional docs. Should I send this letter my principal wrote or would it put me at a disadvantage in anyway(ex: bring more attention to my suspension, or something else)? Any advice/replies/PMs would really be appreciated!

If you've already explained the situation through your application/essay then my suggestion would be to not draw further attention to it. You are already at a distinct disadvantage by competing with thousands of applicants who do not have an ISS on their record. No need to bring it up again, right?
