An "out-of-school suspension" (also known as "suspension") is a removal from school grounds imposed by the school administration for noncompliance with school district policies or rules; for threatening to destroy school property; or for endangering the property, health, or safety of those at school. See §120.13(1)(b), Wis. Stats. |
| In-School Suspension |
IS |
An "in-school suspension" is an instance where a student is temporarily removed from his/her regular classroom(s) for disciplinary purposes but remains under the direct supervision of school personnel. Direct supervision means school personnel are physically in the same location as the student under their supervision. "In-school suspensions" include both removals in which no IEP services are provided and those in which the student continues to receive services according to his/her IEP.
This code is valid only if primary disability <>N as of the removal period start date. |

The IEP team is responsible for determining the interim alternative educational setting. "Placement in IAES - school personnel" does NOT include decisions by the IEP team to change a students placement.

HO |
"Placement in IAES - hearing officer" is an instance in which an impartial IDEA hearing officer orders the removal of a student with disabilities from his or her current educational placement to an appropriate alternative educational setting for not more than 45 school days based on the IDEA hearing officers determination that maintaining the childs current placement is substantially likely to result in injury to the child or others. The IEP team is responsible for determining the interim alternative educational setting.

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS ABOUT REMOVAL TYPE
-
The interim alternative educational setting (IAES) enables the child to continue to receive educational services and participate in the general education curriculum (although in another setting) and to progress toward meeting the goals set out in the IEP. As appropriate, the setting includes a functional behavioral assessment and behavioral intervention services and modifications to address the behavior violation so that it does not recur.
- During an in-school suspension, the student remains in same building that he or she would normally attend. During an IAES removal, the student is at a different site than he or she would normally attend.
