They are special education services and their needs are not being met by the parent school. It is federal law. Schools have no choice. ADA and IDEA.

It's not only expelled students who are out-placed at other schools. Oftentimes, it's due to bullying that the school fails to crack down on, so the victim gets placed at another school for their own mental health and safety. This happens more than schools care to admit. In these cases, the school should absolutely be footing the bill.

I think we would need to see the data on that. In my experience, a vast majority are students with severe special needs, whether social/emotional, behavioral, etc. Documented disability manifestations. My district deals with students expelled for issues like fighting or drugs within our own system.
