Education – expulsion — due process

Patricia L., on her own behalf and on behalf of her minor child, Zachariah L., appeals from summary judgment in favor of the Oregon School District dismissing her action for declaratory judgment against Oregon. Patricia sought an order from the court requiring Oregon to provide educational services to Zachariah, who, at the time, was subject to expulsion from the Janesville School District. Patricia contends that Oregon’s decision not to enroll Zachariah or to provide him with alternative educational services violated article X, section 3 of the Wisconsin Constitution, and that Oregon, in acting without notice or hearing, denied Zachariah due process of law when it denied him enrollment. We affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
