Special Ed: Suspension/expulsion data due

The department’s Special Education Programs is required to collect data regarding the long-term suspension/expulsion of students with disabilities at the end of each school year. Each school district will be sent instructions for submission of data pertinent to suspension and expulsion rates for the 2004-05 school year. The deadline to submit that data is June 30, 2005 .

Districts complete the data submission via an online system. Instructions for submission via the password system will be included in the mailing.

Please watch your mail for the memorandum and instructions to complete this year’s data collection. Districts can contact Linda Turner at (605) 773-3678 with questions regarding this process.
