Parents fear the possible exposure of their children to Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and herpes in the classroom. Yet infected children cannot simply be kept out of school; under the Education for All Handicapped Children Act, "handicapped" children must be accorded the same educational opportunities, in the same environment, as those provided to those who are not handicapped. Further, administrators can be sued both for excluding infected children from the classroom and for keeping them in school. Certain procedures should be followed when dealing with afflicted students. The tentative guidelines include a decision by health personnel, school personnel, and parents regarding the issue of whether the student should remain in school, and, if not, the child should receive an alternative education from school volunteers. Finally, sanitary measures should be taken to prevent the spread of communicable diseases in the classroom. (RG)
