A.C.A. § 5-73-301 A.C.A. § 5-73-306 A.C.A. § 6-5-502 Date Adopted: Last Revised: 3.47—TEACHERS' REMOVAL OF STUDENT FROM CLASSROOM A teacher may remove a student from class whose behavior the teacher has documented to be repeatedly interfering with the teacher's ability to teach the students in the class or whose behavior is so unruly, disruptive or abusive that it interferes with the ability of the student's other classmates to learn. Students who have been removed from their classroom by a teacher shall be sent to the principal's or principal's designee's office for appropriate discipline. The teacher's principal or the principal's designee may: Place the student into another appropriate classroom; Place the student into in-school suspension; Place the student into the District's alternative learning environment in accordance with Policy LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS; Return the student to the class; or Take other appropriate action consistent with the District's student discipline policies and state and federal law. If a teacher removes a student from class two (2) times during any nine-week grading period, the principal or the principal's designee may not return the student to the teacher's class unless a conference has been held for the purpose of determining the cause of the problem and possible solutions. The conference is to be held with the following individuals present: The principal or the principal's designee; The teacher; The school counselor; The parents, guardians, or persons in loco parentis; and The student, if appropriate. However, the failure of the parents, guardians, or persons in loco parentis to attend the conference does not prevent any action from being taken as a result of the conference.
