SPD 300 Topic 8 Discipline Case Study Flowchart GCU
IDEA includes very specific guidelines
regarding the discipline of students with disabilities in public school
settings. Special education teachers must be knowledgeable of, and adhere to, these
guidelines when dealing with any discipline issues regarding students who
receive special education services. It is important that the student’s
disability be taken into consideration when making discipline decisions.
Review the case scenario below to inform the
assignment that follows.
Carrie is a 15‐year‐old student with a language impairment. In particular, she struggles
with understanding expressive language (i.e., sharing thoughts, ideas, and
feelings completely). Recently, Carrie and the bus driver exchanged words about
Carrie’s seat on the bus. Carrie proceeded to call the bus driver several
inappropriate names. Prior to this incident, Carrie had not exhibited any of
these behaviors in her classroom or in any other school environment, and she had
not received any disciplinary action in the school year.
Following the incident, Carrie’s parents
received a letter from the principal stating that Carrie would be suspended for
11 school days, has been expelled from riding the school bus for the remainder
of the semester, and that, for the remainder of the year, special
transportation would be provided to Carrie at the end of the 11‐day suspension.
Carrie’s parents have requested that Carrie’s
IEP team gather in order to complete a functional behavioral assessment,
develop a behavioral intervention plan, and conduct a manifestation
determination review. Further, they object to Carrie having special
transportation. Carrie’s IEP indicates that she is to ride the “general
education” bus.
Part 1: Flowchart
Create a flowchart that clearly depicts the
two possible discipline paths following a manifestation determination identify
that the misconduct was:
- The result of Carrie’s disability

current details of Carrie’s behavior. What next steps need to be addressed, if
any, in regards to her behavior and the parent’s requests for an assessment and
transportation ?
Part 2: Analysis
Include a 250‐500 word
analysis regarding any legal issues raised by the principal’s decision to
change in Carrie’s transportation. Reference relevant statutes, regulations,
and case decisions as appropriate .
Support your findings with a minimum of three
scholarly resources.
