Disciplining a Handicapped Student.

Sarzynski, Edward J.

West's Education Law Reporter, v46 n1 p17-26 Jun 23 1988

The Supreme Court's decision in "Honig v. Doe" indicates that a suspension of a dangerous handicapped student of up to 10 school days is valid. Decisions regarding the disciplining of handicapped students will have to be made on a case-by-case basis. Legal counsel should be sought. (MLF)
