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.
