Thank you, Carolyn! 1. Yes, IEP. 2. Emergency Removal means Mom is called to pick up and take home for the remainder of the day. 3. I have the impression that is just where the student is most of the time. When asked why, the school said the student is too noisy and distracting which disrupts the learning in the room. The FBA noted that the student was in the classroom (LRE) less than 10 minutes a day. 4. No. Sitting outside of the classroom is not a step to returning to the classroom according to parent. 5. We are not clear about the purpose of the Alternate Learning Placement. Most of the removals and placements are the last half of the day.

Is any of this a change in placement or denial of FAPE? If so, what do we do and can you reference the law in IDEA that applies? We are in Ohio. 1. Student is emergency removed for behavior (biting, hitting, kicking, eloping from learning area and on occasion from the property). We had a FBA and BIP in place for 2 weeks. BIP review meeting is Monday. 2. Student is sometimes placed in another classroom called "Alternate Learning Placement" in the building instead of emergency removal for the rest of the day. 3. Student sits outside of gen ed (LRE) classroom in "pod" with 1:1 para and does worksheets and "listens" to the gen ed instruction. FBA noted the student was in the gen ed classroom less than 10 minutes a day during their observations. When asked for a PWN (at the last removal) to address the change in placement and denial of FAPE, the district says none of these things are a change in placement or denial of FAPE. They say they only need to provide SDI and related services if the student has been removed more than 10 days. No PWN was sent.
