(8.10) If I disagree with the recommendation of the manifestation determination IEP team to expel my child, can I challenge the recommendation?

Yes. If you disagree with the team recommendation, you can file for due process to dispute the recommendation of the manifestation determination team. [20 U.S.C. Sec. 1415(k)(3); 34 C.F.R. Secs. 300.530 – 300.532.] In most cases, until the due process proceedings have been completed, your child must remain in his current classroom placement and continue to receive the special education services required in his IEP. See Chapter 6, Information on Due Process/Compliance Procedures.
