FTCE Exceptional Student Education (ESE) K-12 Practice Test

In Honig v. Doe, what does the "stay put" provision ensure?

1. Students can be moved immediately for any reason.

2. Students remain in their current educational placement during disputes.

3. Students must repeat grades if they misbehave.

4. Students can only receive remote learning during disputes.

The correct answer is: Students remain in their current educational placement during disputes.

The "stay put" provision, as established in Honig v. Doe, ensures that students with disabilities remain in their current educational placement during disputes regarding their educational programs or placements. This legal safeguard is designed to protect students from being removed from their established settings while disagreements about their needs or services are resolved. The idea is to maintain stability and continuity in the education of students with disabilities, preventing disruptive changes that could adversely affect their learning and emotional well-being during the dispute process.
