School districts are increasingly looking to serve the diverse needs of their students through innovative programs that include small and alternative schools, online learning, advanced placement courses, support for limited English proficient families, and support for students with behavioral and emotional needs. Boards also must address student conduct and safety in a way that respects the rights of all students to an education and to an orderly and effective learning environment.

  • Expulsion, suspension, corporal punishment and other discipline of students
  • Child Custody Issues
  • Child abuse reporting
  • Claims of constitutional violations
  • Claims of civil rights violations based on race and sex
  • Federal Investigations, including Investigations by the Office for Civil Rights of the US Department of Education concerning limited English proficient students and families, racially disproportionate discipline, the role of law enforcement in schools, and other matters
  • Grievances by students
