OP is better off w/o the coding.  Once the kid is coded, I can guarantee that they'll claim the behavior manifests from his issues.  Right now, she can follow up with a police report.  Keep a paper trail.  CPS should be called, too, b/c this is not behavior that's normal.  And document with the union. [/quote]

I hate this kind of pernicious myth.  An IEP does NOT mean a child has the right to violently threaten the rest of the class or teachers.  If this disruptive behavior comes from his disability, then that's a reason to give him an appropriate placement or more support!  And kids with IEPs can absolutely be suspended or disciplined (just look on the stats on that -- they are.)  The IEP gives you MORE avenues, not fewer.  Also, none of the other measures you listed are incompatible with having an IEP in place.  Not that I necessarily agree with this, but you can still call the police, CPS, and your union if the kid has an IEP.  [/quote]

no shit, Sherlock

However, suspensions and expulsions with an ED coding are close to impossible.  You clearly don't know the game very well or haven't been around long enough to see trends.

This is schools' own bad behavior coming back to bite them. If they actually provided services and support kids need, they would be confident enough to speed placements as needed. But they drag their feet for everyone, and can't solve their own big problems forthrightly as a result. Do not blame IDEA![/quote]
