Common use of Disruptive Students Clause in Contracts

Disruptive Students. When, in the judgment of the teacher, a student is, by his/her behavior, seriously disrupting the instructional program to the detriment of other students, the teacher may temporarily exclude the student from the classroom and refer him/her to the principal. Such exclusion is subject to an IEP, Section 504 requirements or a behavior plan which may be in place for certain students. Legal requirements in state and/or federal law, and these documents, may prevent exclusion in certain cases. Prior to return to the classroom in such cases, the principal or his/her representative shall arrange, under normal circumstances not later than the conclusion of the following school day, a conference among him/herself, the teacher and possibly an appropriate specialist to discuss the problem and decide upon appropriate steps for its resolution. When a teacher removes a student from the room, he/she shall remain in the responsibility of the teacher until the teacher informs the principal or his/her representative.
