[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 505924"] Definitely check out the links Buddy listed. They will help you a lot. Like Buddy said, they need to determine if his behavior leading up to and during that incident are "related to or caused by" his disability. Obviously with those particular diagnoses, there is NO way they can say it isn't. Take a list of symptoms for each diagnosis with you so you can quote from it to prove it IS. If they determine that his actions WERE a manifestation of his disability, the team needs to revise his IEP to include a POSITIVE behavior plan to address those issues. If they say it wasn't, ask them to explain how they are determining that. Don't let them say it wasn't, those diagnoses alone explain any kind of confrontational behavior he displayed. Also as Buddy said, even if they do expel him, they MUST continue to provide educational services for the remainder of the school year or until a more suitable placement is found. Can you describe the services and accommodations he is receiving in school now that are in his IEP? Also, can you give us a description of the situation they are talking about? We can give you better advice if we have all the information. Remember not to use staff or school names. GET AN ADVOCATE!! Welcome to the forum. You have come to the right place. The wealth of knowledge here is ubelievable. [/QUOTE]
