@MTeleshia@EducationLaw2 I agree that safety is a huge issue, but I also feel that freedom of expression is too. I think schools have found ways to silence students 1st amendment rights by throwing them under content-neutral rules.
@carltondria @EducationLaw2 I agree Carltondria, there has to be a line that maintains discipline in schools. To me walking out is skipping which is also addressed by discipline as well as attendance.
@EducationLaw2 Yes, but schools may punish you depending on how you decide to express yourself. You can't break content-neutral rules while expressing your 1st Amendment rights. As far as walking out, you are subject to attendance rules, so you have accountability and can be disciplined.
@DEducationlaw2 @GroceKooper@EducationLaw2 I've seen some cases that honestly there was zero chance of a child learning anything academic, PID-SID classes that were the saddest thing I have ever seen. Parents use these for respite care. I feel like a hospital day program really would have been more beneficial for them.
@EducationLaw2 Yes, I think there are cases that would be better managed in a hospital program. I had a student with Alexanders disease, she was barely cognizant of the world around her, she was also so medically fragile that a school setting put her life at risk constantly.
@BoehmKelley@EducationLaw2@BoehmKelley JMO but I don't really consider online instruction, like the k-12 academy as "home school". Most people think of homeschool, as a parent designed curriculum and instruction as true homeschooling.
@EducationLaw2 @EducationLaw2I think it can be, however it takes an extraordinary parent to take on the task of making a child college or career ready. Most parents are not aware of how to even find what their child needs to master.
