Alternative Education Options

Oregon law requires that in certain circumstances school districts inform students and parents of alternative education options that might be available to them. School districts are also required to inform students and parents of those alternative education programs for which they will provide financial support.

The school administration will inform students and parents, or guardians, about the availability of alternative education programs in each of the following situations:

  1. Upon the occurrence of a second or any subsequent occurrence of a disciplinary problem within a three year period that would justify a recommendation for expulsion;


  2. When a student's attendance problem is so erratic that, in the opinion of the district, he or she is not benefiting from the educational program;


  3. When the school is considering an expulsion as a disciplinary alternative;


  4. When a student is expelled; or


  5. When a student or his/her parents, or guardian, notifies the school of the intent to withdraw the student from school attendance as provided under the law.

    Except in those cases when a student withdraws from school, the school administration will also inform students and parents of those alternative education programs for which the district would provide financial support. They may be district-operated programs or programs operated by other public or private agencies that are registered with the Oregon Department of Education.
