Learner Objectives
This session will help participants…
- consider legal obligations in the manifestation determination review (MDR) process;
- consider legal obligations in assisting IEP teams in determining the student’s current least restrictive environment (LRE); and
- appreciate how assumptions regarding a student’s race/color/national origin/language, disability, socioeconomic status, or other characteristics may affect the team’s MDR decisions and LRE determinations.
Description
School teams confront determinations of appropriate placement for students with disabilities after a contentious disciplinary matter. Manifestation determination reviews and least restrictive environment decisions are among the most common and difficult team decisions.
