Putting It All Together: A Case Study
After reading about Charlie in Putting it all together: A case study explain whether you would want Charlie back in your class. Did the school follow the correct disciplinary procedures? Discuss why or why not. Would you have done anything differently, according to IDEA’s procedures? If your answer is “yes,” how will you support Charlie so this doesn’t happen again? If your answer is “no,” where do you think is his most reasonable placement, and why?
