Abstract
For children with a chronic illness, a traditional academic path may not be possible due to increased absenteeism caused by hospitalizations, frequent doctor appointments, and symptoms of the condition or treatment side effects. Additionally, it can be unsafe for students with compromised immune systems to attend school. Thus, depending on the medical course and presentation, an alternative educational setting is often necessary for students with chronic health conditions. This chapter provides a review of the legal support for alternative educational settings and then reviews variations of alternative educational settings. The variations include hospital-based schooling, homebound instruction, flexible instruction, and technology-based and online school programs. The chapter concludes with an overview of factors for the school-based professional to consider when working with families and other systems of care to identify the most appropriate educational environment for a student with a chronic medical condition.
