"Interim alternative educational setting" means a student's placement when the public agency removes a student from the student's current placement as a result of any of the following:
(1) Under 511 IAC 7-44-3, when a student has been removed for more than ten (10) cumulative instructional days in the same school year, but the removals do not constitute a pattern that results in a change of placement. The public agency may decide to provide services during the removal in an interim alternative educational setting.(2) Under 511 IAC 7-44-5, when a CCC determines that a student's conduct is not a manifestation of the student's disability. The CCC may determine that during any period of removal a student will receive services in an interim alternative educational setting.(3) Under 511 IAC 7-44-6, when a student is removed by the public agency for not more than forty-five (45) instructional days for weapons, drugs, or serious bodily injury. The student's CCC must determine the appropriate interim alternative educational setting for the period of removal.(4) Under 511 IAC 7-44-7, when an independent hearing officer may order a change of placement to an appropriate interim alternative educational setting for not more than forty-five (45) instructional days if the hearing officer determines that maintaining the current placement of the student is substantially likely to result in injury to the student or to others.(5) A court may determine an interim alternative educational setting for a student while administrative remedies are exhausted.
