(c) A student with a disability shall be instructed in accordance with the student's individualized education program (IEP) in the least restrictive environment, as determined by the admission, review, and dismissal (ARD) committee. If a student is unable to receive a free appropriate public education (educational benefit) in a regular career and technical education program, using supplementary aids and services, the student may be served in separate programs designed to address the student's occupational/training needs, such as career and technical education for students with disabilities programs.

(1) The ARD committee shall include a representative from career and technical education, preferably the teacher, when considering initial or continued placement of a student in a career and technical education program. An ARD committee member, including a member described in this subsection, is not required to attend an ARD committee meeting if the conditions of 34 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), §300.321(e)(1), regarding attendance, or 34 CFR, §300.321(e)(2), regarding excusal, have been met.

(2) Planning for students with disabilities shall be coordinated among career and technical education, special education, and state rehabilitation agencies and should include a coherent sequence of courses.

(3) A school district shall monitor to determine if the instruction being provided students with disabilities in career and technical education classes is consistent with the IEP developed for a student.

(4) A school district shall provide supplementary services that each student with a disability needs to successfully complete a career and technical education program such as curriculum modification, equipment modification, classroom modification, supportive personnel, and instructional aids and devices.

(5) A school district shall help fulfill the transitional service requirements of the IDEA of 2004, 20 USC, §§1400 - 1491o, and implementing regulations, state statutes, and rules of the commissioner of education for each student with a disability who is completing a coherent sequence of career and technical education courses.

(6) When determining placement in a career and technical education classroom, the ARD committee shall consider a student's graduation plan, the content of the IEP, including the consideration of transition services, and classroom supports. Enrollment numbers should not create a harmful effect on student learning for a student with or without disabilities in accordance with the provisions in the IDEA of 2004, 20 USC, §§1400 - 1491o, and its implementing regulations.
