Scheuermann, Brenda; And Others

Behavioral Disorders, v19 n3 p205-20 May 1994

This article addresses legal concerns regarding the use of level systems to manage students with emotional and behavioral disorders. Concerns pertain to a failure to individualize the program, including restricted access to the least restrictive environment, curricular issues, and procedural concerns. A decision-making model to aid in designing individualized level systems is offered. (Author/DB)
