When talking about manifestation a school can remove a student for up to 45 days if, 1: carries a weapon to school, 2: knowingly has or is using illegal drugs, or 3: has inflicted serious bodily injury on another child.

If there is a change to the placement of a child with a disability because of a violation of student conduct, the school, members of the IEP Team, and you as a parent must review relevant information in the student's file within 10 school days. All parties involved will determine if either the conduct in question was a result of the child's disability or if the conduct was a result of the school's failure to implement the IEP. If all parties involved determine BOTH of the conditions were met, the conduct must be determined to be a manifestation of the child's disability. If all parties involved determine that the conduct was a result of the school's failure to implement the IEP, the school has to immediately remedy the deficiencies.

Procedural safeguards are in place as a requirement of the IEP process. They are beneficial to parents/families of children with disabilities as they provide alternatives to resolving any  situation that may arise.
Services should still be provided for a child with an IEP if they have been suspended from school up to 10 days due to violated school rules. These services may be provided in an alternative educational environment. Student should also receive behavioral interventions, assessments and modifications to assist in the behavior not happening again.

# data[].attributes.body
Procedural safeguards are a set of rules in place to protect the parent, student and teacher in the IEP meetings. They are to let everyone know the procedures and legal guidelines that must be followed during the IEP meeting. The section I studied was the special circumstances section of the procedural safeguards. The special circumstances section states that whether a behavior was a manifestation of the students disability or not the student can be moved to an alternative educational setting for up to 45 days. The special situations that falls under this category is carrying a weapon on school grounds, knowingly has or uses illegal drugs or inflicted serious bodily injury at school or on school grounds.

# data[].attributes.body
Whether or not the behavior was a manifestation of the child‘s disability, school personnel may remove a student to an interim alternative educational setting (determined by the child‘s IEP Team) for up to 45 school days, if the child: 1. Carries a weapon (see the definition below) to school or has a weapon at school, on school premises, or at a school function under the jurisdiction of the State Educational Agency or a school district; 2. Knowingly has or uses illegal drugs (see the definition below), or sells or solicits the sale of a controlled substance, (see the definition below), while at school, on school premises, or at a school function under the jurisdiction of the State Educational Agency or a school district; or 3.
