Can a student with disabilities be expelled? Does a suspension constitute a change in placement? What if the misconduct is a direct manifestation of the student’s disability? What do you do when a student claims to be disabled after facing disciplinary charges? Are there options if a student presents a risk of danger to herself or others but has not yet acted out? Learn the answers to these tough questions and other nuances of discipline under the IDEA. Attorney Dave Garner dives into the rules that apply when discipline results in a change of placement, using easy-to-remember analogies, buzzwords, and practical flow charts.
