Abstract

Will student disabilities affect the way that school authorities impose discipline on these students? Should they? Every day students and schools across the country face similar questions. Now a new statutory and regulatory scheme answers them. A 1997 set of amendments to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act' (IDEA) was followed in March of 1999 by a complex set of final regulations, issued by the Department of Education (DOE). This analysis provides a critical look at the resulting regulatory scheme and how well it settles the storm of controversy that has swirled around disciplinary issues since the 1975 enactment of landmark legislation providing for the appropriate education of children with disabilities.
