Jeremey and Erin collect and share the pitfalls and conundrums you may encounter when attempting to change a student’s placement when the placement options are limited or non-existent. The discussion includes a case out of New Jersey which set a high bar for the district and its pursuit of an out-of-district placement. They include pointers related to the provision of temporary home instruction and what should be documented, all which will have you saying “Bada Bing, Bada Boom” when the next placement issue arises!
