Discipline of Student with Disabilities. A student identified as an individual with disabilities pursuant to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is subject to the same grounds for suspension and expulsion which apply to students without disabilities. Students with disabilities may be removed from the classroom for up to ten (10) school days for any violation of a school code or conduct, in the same manner and to the same extent that a non-disabled student would be. A manifestation determination must be conducted within ten (10) school days to determine if the behavior was the result of the child’s disability or the direct result of the local educational agency’s failure to implement the IEP. If the behavior is deemed to be a manifestation of the disability and the student is removed from the classroom for more than ten (10) school days, the District must conduct a behavioral assessment or modify the existing Behavior Support Plan.
