When extreme and dangerous behaviors are directly linked to a student’s disability, traditional disciplinary responses are often not legally permissible. But involving law enforcement or school security raises complex legal questions.

Attorney Jeremy Neff guides you through balancing the immediate response to safety concerns with students’ legal protections. Through real-world scenarios, you learn when to involve law enforcement and best practices to:

  • Identify when and how to share student information with law enforcement in compliance with FERPA
  • Ensure that the use of law enforcement does not disrupt the student’s right to FAPE
  • Evaluate and modify a student’s LRE to reduce the likelihood of continued law enforcement involvement
  • Seek a student's emergency removal
  • Do all of these things while maintaining focus on the child’s needs
