LB682

Update terminology relating to individualized education programs for high school students

Introduced·1/22/25
Introduced Text

Updates terminology in Nebraska law to clarify participation in high school graduation ceremonies for students with special needs.

Nebraska LB682 amends section 79-770 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska to update terminology related to individualized education programs for students receiving special education services. The bill specifies that a student who has not completed their individualized education program plan but has received a certificate of attendance may participate in a high school graduation ceremony. This change ensures that students with special needs can participate in graduation ceremonies without affecting the school district's obligation to provide special education services.
