(a) Before placing a student in an alternative
education program, the school corporation in which the student is
enrolled shall prepare an individual service plan for the student's
placement.
(b) The individual service plan for a student must be reviewed and
revised:
(1) as needed; and
(2) at least annually.
(c) The initial plan and each revised plan must be jointly prepared
by the student's:
(1) teacher or teachers; and
(2) principal or the principal's designee.
If a student is enrolled in an alternative education program when an
individual service plan is revised, the principal and teacher for the
alternative education program may prepare the revised plan. If a
student is enrolled in the classes of more than one (1) teacher, a teacher
who is designated by the school corporation as the student's principal
adviser shall prepare the individual service plan.
(d) The individual service plan for a student must be in writing. In
the plan, the student's teacher or teachers and principal or principal's
designee must jointly agree that the student is likely to academically
benefit from participation in an alternative education program. The
plan must include a description of at least the following:
(1) Educational goals appropriate for the student.
(2) Behavioral goals appropriate for the student.
(3) An alternative education program that is appropriate for the
student.
(4) Services required by the student and the student's immediate
family to meet the educational goals and behavioral goals
