NEW PS v Shore Regional This is an appeal from a District Court order overturning a state administrative law judge’s decision holding that a school district failed to provide a “free appropriate public education” within the meaning of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (“IDEA”), 20 U.S.C. §§ 1400-1487, for a student who had been subjected to severe and prolonged harassment by other students. We hold that the District Court improperly failed to give “due weight” to the ALJ’s determination, and we therefore reverse. PDF

Administration of Medication in Schools Q. Who is permitted to administer medications to students? A. Only the following individuals are authorized to administer medication to pupils in schools:
Q. How should medications be administered on a field trip? A. Students who have been classified as eligible for special education or who have a 504 plan that includes medications cannot be denied access to educational opportunities based on their need for medication during the school day. It is recommended that children who require accommodations because they are on medication should have a 504 plan. The school must make every effort to provide reasonable accommodations for these students. Possible options include:
HIV Policy and Practice in New Jersey Public Schools Q. Who needs to know that a student or employee has HIV infection? A. There is no need for anyone at school to know the HIV status of pupils or employees. What everyone does need to understand is that the blood of any student or employee could potentially be infected with a bloodborne pathogen such as HIV or Hepatitis B and that under normal conditions in regular educational programs, use of universal precautions is sufficient to protect against transmission of bloodborne diseases. Schools are required to help school staff understand and maintain this minimal risk through at least annual inservice training of staff in HIV facts and fallacies and school procedures and through ready access to the necessary protective equipment. Additional instruction of students in universal precautions and first aid procedures assists school staff in implementing this policy. Pupils, their parents or guardians, and employees are not obligated to inform school personnel regarding their HIV status and cannot be required to do so in accordance with state regulation and statute. School staff with knowledge of the HIV status of others in the school is not at liberty to share that information with others without specific written consent. Q. How do records related to the HIV status of students relate to other records maintained by the school? A. While not required to do so, some parents or pupils may share HIV status information in order to obtain health care or educational support. Records and information regarding the HIV status of a pupil may be shared only with the written consent of the pupil’s parent or guardian and only with those who need to know in order to determine the educational program for the pupil.
