Least Restrictive Environment The Board and the Association acknowledge that the policy of least restrictive environment is legally mandated and intended in the best educational interest of the student. Accordingly, the parties who would fit legal requirements which would involve the use of an Individual Educational Planning Team (IEPT) for placement in the regular classroom must be appropriate to the student’s unique needs as determined by an IEP on an individual basis. For the purpose of this section, such students shall be referred to as “mainstreamed students.”
1. Any member who has a reasonable basis to believe that a mainstreamed student assigned to that member has a current IEP report that is not meeting the student’s unique needs as required by law or whose behavior is physically or verbally abusive towards others and disruptive to the learning environment, should promptly notify the administration.
2. The following conditions shall apply to placement of mainstreamed students in general education classrooms:
a. Any member who will be providing instructional or other services to a mainstreamed student in a regular education classroom setting shall be invited to participate in the IEPT which may initially place (or continue the placement of) the student in a regular education classroom. When invited to such an IEPT, the member will make a reasonable attempt to attend the IEPT and, when it is requested, will provide written input to the IEP (or the Multi-Disciplinary Evaluation Team Report to be presented to the IEPT).
b. In instances where it is not possible to identify in advance of an IEPT general education teachers who ultimately will have mainstreamed student(s) assigned to their classroom(s), meetings will be convened with such general education teachers as soon as possible following the beginning of the school year to explain the conclusion of the IEPT and to provide for the teacher to have input.
c. The district shall make every reasonable effort to provide the receiving teacher(s) with necessary support identified in the IEP, including paraprofessionals, materials and other related services.
d. The administration shall provide, prior to such placement whenever possible, in-service training and awareness information to the teacher(s) regarding the instruction and behavioral management of such mainstreamed students in the regular education classroom setting, including but not limited to, the differing approaches, problems, and techniques to be utilized with varying physical, mental, emotional, and behavioral conditions as are likely to be faced in the given situation. Such training and information shall be provided at board expense and shall be mutually arranged with the teacher(s) to be involved. If such prior training and information are not possible, the training and/or information will be provided as early as can be arranged after placement has occurred.
LEAST RESTRICTIVE ENVIRONMENT/DUAL ENROLLMENT CONTRACTOR and XXX shall follow all LEA policies and procedures that support Least Restrictive Environment (“LRE”) options and/or dual enrollment options if available and appropriate, for students to have access to the general curriculum and to be educated with their nondisabled peers to the maximum extent appropriate. CONTRACTOR and XXX shall ensure that LRE placement options are addressed at all IEP team meetings regarding students for whom ISAs have been or may be executed. This shall include IEP team consideration of supplementary aids and services, goals and objectives necessary for placement in the LRE and necessary to enable students to transition to less restrictive settings. When an IEP team has determined that a student should be transitioned into the public school setting, CONTRACTOR shall assist the LEA in implementing the IEP team’s recommended activities to support the transition.
Safe Environment The School shall maintain a safe learning environment at all times. The School shall develop and adhere to a safety plan, which shall be provided to the Commission.
Smoke Free Environment The Lessor shall make all parts of the leased premise smoke-free. "
NON-SEXIST ENVIRONMENT 1. A non-sexist environment is defined as that in which there is no discrimination against females or males by portraying them in gender stereotyped roles or by omitting their contributions.

3. The employer and the local shall promote a non-sexist environment through the development, integration, and implementation of non-sexist educational programs, activities, and learning resources for both staff and students.
