MANIFEST EDUCATIONAL HARDSHIP POLICY

The School Board may apply the following criteria or utilize additional or other criteria, at its sole discretion, as a guideline in determining Manifest Educational Hardship:

1. Does the pupil have a very particular, substantiated educational need that cannot be met at the assigned school?

2. Is the pupil’s particular educational need one not commonly found within the assigned school’s student body?

3. Will failure to meet the pupil’s particular educational need likely cause significant impairment of the pupil’s educational progress?

4. Is there a (reasonably available) public school in this or another district which can demonstrably meet the particular educational need of the pupil?
