TITLE 126 LEGISLATIVE RULE BOARD OF EDUCATION SERIES 16 REGULATIONS FOR THE EDUCATION OF EXCEPTIONAL STUDENTS (2419) §126-16-1. General. 1.1. Purpose: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Amendments of 1997 requires that the State set forth policies and procedures to assure that there is a goal of providing full educational opportunity to all students with disabilities birth through 21 years of age. The State of West Virginia reaffirms the goal to provide full educational opportunities for all students with disabilities, aged birth through 21. The State works toward the realization of this goal through the implementation of, and compliance with, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Amendments of 1997 (P.L. 105-17). 1.2. Scope: These regulations apply to preschool, early childhood, middle childhood, adolescent and adult students whose educational programs require special education and related services. These apply to three year olds, as of their third birth date, through five year olds with disabilities and those who are between five and 21 years of age prior to September 1 of such school year, unless the student has met graduation requirements as specified by the Individualized Education Program and within the state/local policy pertaining to graduation requirements. 1.2.1. West Virginia's mandatory special education statute legislates a child identification effort by county boards of education. Chapter 18, Article 20, Section 2, of the West Virginia Code states, "The board of education of each county is empowered and is responsible for providing suitable educational facilities, special equipment and such special services as may be necessary. Special services include provisions and procedures for finding and enumerating exceptional children of each type..." The mandated target group for the state child find requirements includes individuals with disabilities between birth and 21 years of age, gifted students from first through eighth grades, and exceptional gifted in grades nine through 12. Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) requires interagency collaboration in child find activities targeting children from birth through 5 years of age.

2. INTRODUCTION TO THE COURT OPINION ON THE WEST VIRGINIA BOARD OF EDUCATION V. BAR west virginia BOARD OF education V. BARNETTE. of the United States and of west virginia, brought suit these flag salute laws and regulations against Jehovah s http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/facts/democrac/46.htm

INTRODUCTION TO THE COURT OPINION ON THE WEST VIRGINIA BOARD OF EDUCATION V. BARNETTE CASE There are two clauses regarding religion in the First Amendment. One is the Establishment Clause, which prohibits the government from establishing any sort of official religion (see next document); the other is the Free Exercise Clause, which forbids the government from restricting an individual's religious practices. Free exercise claims often overlap claims to freedom of expression, and several of the most important religion cases mixed issues of free speech and free exercise together. A key element in religion clause jurisprudence is the dichotomy between belief and action originally enunciated by Chief Justice Morrison Waite in 1879. While the First Amendment absolutely prohibits government efforts to restrict beliefs, it does not prevent the state from forbidding practices that threaten public order or safety. In the example Waite used, if a sect believed in human sacrifice, the government could do nothing to restrict that belief; but it could, without violating the Free Exercise Clause, bar the actual sacrifice. While this belief/action analysis remains useful even today, the Court came to recognize that in some areas belief and action overlapped. The Jehovah's Witnesses are a relatively small sect in the United States, but they are responsible for some of the most important cases establishing religious freedom. The Witnesses claimed a right to proselytize, an action, without state regulation, as essential to the free exercise of their creed, a belief. In several cases the Court upheld these claims, but primarily on speech rather than religion clause grounds, yet these decisions are in fact the basis for modern jurisprudence on the Free Exercise Clause.
