Indicator 4: Significant Discrepancy in Suspension/Expulsion

Each Local Educational Agency (LEA) must have a rate of suspension/expulsion of students with disabilities comparable to the suspension/expulsion of non-disabled peers. The minimum criteria of discrepancy for each State Educational Agency (SEA) is determined with stakeholder input. Indicator 4a is a broad overview, while Indicator 4b focuses on the discrepancy within specific sub-groups.

• Indicator 4: Significant Discrepancy in Suspension/Expulsion
• Indicator 4A: Risk ratio for all students with disabilities with long-term suspension/expulsion: rates of suspension and expulsion.
• Indicator 4B: Findings of (a) a significant discrepancy by racial identity and (b) policies, procedures, or practices that contribute to the finding and do not comply with requirements.
