SUMMARY:ALA504 Empower Hour #3: Ensuring Compliance when Disciplining the 504-Only Student
DESCRIPTION:504 Student Discipline Compliance\nThis is the second in a series of 4 Alabama 504 Virtual Training Sessions. \nThe issue of discipline in schools continues to be the Number 1 “hot topic” nationwide year after year. For that reason\, it is important to generally review the rules of discipline applicable to the “504-only” student which\, in most ways are the same as those under the IDEA\, but in some ways are different. This session will review the highlights of what every educator needs to know about compliant disciplinary practices applicable to students with disabilities under Section 504. \nPresented by: Julie J.
