Scenario: Mr. Zen sends Boisterous Sam out of class a minimum of 3 periods per week to finish his assignments in the Administrative Conference Room. Mr. Zen claims that Boisterous Sam is destroying his Feng Shui and he distracts himself and his classmates every time there is independent work completion. Boisterous Sam’s mother calls you extremely angry that her son is being “excluded from his education based on his disability.”

This does not constitute a change of placement, as Boisterous Sam has access to his assignments and he is just completing them in a quieter location. Mr. Zen is doing a creative job with classroom management

This does not constitute a change of placement, but you will check in with Mr. Zen to be certain that he is implementing all of Boisterous Sam’s accommodations.

This does constitute a change of placement after Sam has been sent out of 60 periods. An IEP meeting needs to be convened to determine if this is a Manifestation of his Disability
