		<description>Regarding: &quot;Can a student who is in special education and has an IEP (individual education plan) be expelled in Florida? Just wondering!&quot;

  Technically, no.  An IEP is a contract guaranteeing the student the services specified in the IEP.  
  A student with an IEP can be given a hearing to determine if a change of placement is warranted by their behavior.  Change of placement can be: from inclusion in the regular classes to confinement in a special class at the same school; or from attending  a regular school to attending a special school or center. 
  In rare cases a student has been assigned to homebound services. 
  This will be decided for each individual student at a change of placement hearing. The relationship of the student&#039;s behavior to his disability will be considered.  The safety of having the student remain in his present setting will be considered.  After the hearing the ESE administrator in charge of the hearing makes the decision.  
  Be aware that I retired in 2007, so my information is three years old.  There may have been some policy changes.</description>

		<description>My wife can address it better--when she wakes back up, but I remember part of it is that IEP only covers certain disabilities. If a child does something outside of the disability listed, expulsion shouldn&#039;t even be a problem.

For example, say a child has a learning disability and brings a gun to school. Unless the learning disability would cause him to not understand guns are no-no&#039;s, bringing disallowed items to school would be sufficient to expell.

For a harder example, say a child has problems with self control due to Emotional Handicaps of some sort and tends to attack everybody in sight at the drop of a hat, it would be harder to get rid of him, but the safety of the other children still has to be considered. You don&#039;t send a time bomb to school because Congress decides Time Bombs should be treated just like nonTime Bombs.

		<description>REGARDING:

Not without a hearing, but meetings are what school administrators live for.

		<description>I have a little brother that goes to there, an I went there myself. I have 100% confidence in Mrs. Perry as well. She done a good job when I went there with less students. So she made the right decision. Parents or students who think that it was unfair to have the kids on lock down should look at it in her point of view, &amp; think of what could have happened!! Northview was on a lock down too.  Thanks for all you do Mrs. Perry, your awesome to your babies &amp; staff!</description>
