Manifestation Determination Representation & Guidance

A Manifestation Determination Review (MDR) is a required special education meeting held when a school is proposing to suspend or expel a student with an IEP or 504 Plan for more than 10 days.

The team must determine whether the behavior in question was:

• Caused by the student’s disability, or
• A direct result of the school not implementing the IEP correctly.

This decision can significantly impact your child’s placement, services, and future disciplinary actions—which is why expert support matters.
