[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 78117, member: 23"] Had your child been deemed eligible for a 504 Plan and the 504 written at the time the behavior occurred? If not, she has/had no protections regarding suspensions. A child with a 504 plan or IEP can be suspended for 10 cummulative school days in the year. At that point in time, further suspensions would likely be considered a "change in placement." Suspensions beyond the 10 cummulative school days should trigger a Manifestation Hearing. You'll have to check your school district policy regarding Parent Coordinators' access to educational records. Personally, I don't see how they could effectively do their job without access, but school district's have privacy issues to deal with so they often have some pretty tight procedures in place. If her access is limited by policy, you can write a letter to the sd allowing access. Be sure and send it Certified Mail. If your child does not have an IEP, IDEA does not apply. However, the 10-day suspension, change in placement notations, manifestation hearing is applicable to both. If your child has a 504 Plan, you immediately need to request a Behavior Intervention Plan be put into place. It's virtually unheard of for 504 student to get a para. Kudos to your school district for recognizing this related service. [/QUOTE]
