  1. The eligibility for students with Emotional Disturbance (we say that instead of Handicapped nowadays) hasn't changed much since first published in the late 60's:

    "...a condition exhibiting one or more of the following characteristics over a long period of time and to a marked degree that adversely affects a child's educational performance--

    (A) An inability to learn that cannot be explained by intellectual, sensory, or health factors.

    (B) An inability to build or maintain satisfactory interpersonal relationships with peers and teachers.

    (C) Inappropriate types of behavior or feelings under normal circumstances.

    (D) A general pervasive mood of unhappiness or depression.

    (E) A tendency to develop physical symptoms or fears associated with personal or school problems." [Code of Federal Regulations, Title 34, Section 300.7(c)(4)(i)]

    As defined by the IDEA, emotional disturbance includes schizophrenia but does not apply to children who are socially maladjusted, unless it is determined that they have an emotional disturbance. [Code of Federal Regulation, Title 34, Section 300.7(c)(4)(ii)] Excluding people with 'social maladjustments' is supposed to address folks who have grown up in poverty, children who have had negative role models or different/ineffective parenting.

    A team of professionals must make this decision, but generally a medical professional has determined the child to have a menthal health disorder first. This is not necessary for schools to apply the label, however.

    The classes are supposed to focus on behavior, rather than academics. In these classrooms, most have level systems or other type of behavior improvement programs. If a child has a diagnosis of something, but ED doesn't fit, the child can also be labeled with an "Other Health Impairment". Mental health therapy is also provided to most students in school, but I generally refer parents to outside agencies as well, so families can get comprehensive community services.
