STUDENTS PREGNANT STUDENTS

 

Though a student shall not be excluded from attendance in the regular school program solely on the grounds of pregnancy, the district shall develop and make available, at the student's option, alternative educational programs designed to benefit a pregnant student's scholastic needs. A pregnant student may be required to produce a physician's statement as to the condition of her health relative to her continued presence in the regular school program. If the statement indicates that the pregnant student's health and physical well- being mandates her withdrawal from regular school attendance, the district shall require a suitable alternative educational program.
