Just to expand on that. For the folks who don’t know how IEP’s work in the school system, if a kid does something and the behavior is deemed to be “related to the exceptionality documented on the IEP” the punishment they are allowed to receive is VASTLY more limited than what protocol would call for.
So say you have a kid who is classified oppositionally defiant. That’s a fancy way of saying they will buck authority. Let’s say that kid screams at you, yelling frick you I’m not doing shite when given an assignment and you write that kid up for a referral. They will promptly send that kid right back because YOU exacerbated their documented IEP exceptionality so their behavior is actually your fault.
one of my best friends was a successful soccer coach and taught AP Physics and Astronomy. So not the typical "history" coach.
He confiscated a gun that a kid was flashing around in class and sent him to the principal's office and after the referral he was back in the classroom flipping him off before the period was over.
his last year he had a meeting with his Assistant Principal that pointed out 100% of his discipline referrals were to African American students.
He pointed out that he had 100 students. 15 were white/asian/hispanic and 85 were black. the 15 white adjacent folk hadn't done anything to get in trouble. and there were 60 black kids that never got in trouble.
my friend asked if the AP wanted to start making up things to write up about the other kids and he replied "just fix it."
and then he quit.

My friend’s school for a letter from the OIG that accused her school of giving discipline referrals to one of their kids on racial grounds - because he was Native American.
The fly in the ointment was that no one (other than the OIG) knew that the kid was Native American. After months of inquiry, the school finally avoided a declaration of fault because the mom registered the kid simply as white.
Last year, the Post-Disgust (local rag), tried to go after schools who gave kids with disabilities more discipline referrals. Completely (and likely knowingly) ignoring that behavior is often labeled as a disability.

Someone should have gone to jail immediately...the kid, or the parents, or both.
