When school authorities discipline a student with disabilities, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, 20 U.S.C. 1415 requires the conduct of a Manifestation Determination in many cases. This new program explains the legal requirements, as well as the practical issues associated with a Manifestation Determination. Experienced attorneys, who represent students and school districts, provide insights into both federal and Massachusetts practice requirements.
