K.A.R. 91-40-31
The Kansas Special Education Process Handbook, which the Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE) publishes chapter by chapter, reprints K.A.R. 91-40-31 once, in Chapter 12: Due Process Hearing. What follows is the reprint, quoted verbatim from the captured chapters (tools/packets/kansas-packet.txt), including the PDF text layer's line-wrap artifacts, which are reproduced rather than corrected. Where a reprint crosses a page, the quotation is split at the page break rather than bridged across the running head. The handbook reprints the parts of a section a chapter needs, so a reprint may be an excerpt: this is the handbook's text, not the section as the state publishes it, which is not captured here. All dates on this page are quoted from the source, not a deadline calculation performed for you.
As the handbook reprints it
Printed in: Chapter 12: Due Process Hearing
Heading, as printed: "K.A.R. 91-40-31. Educational placement during proceedings."
"(a) Except as otherwise provided in K.S.A. 72-3435 and amendments thereto and this regulation, during the pendency of any special education due process or judicial proceeding, the child’s educational placement shall be determined in accordance with K.S.A. 72-3416(c) and amendments thereto."
"(b) If a state review officer in an administrative appeal agrees with the parent’s position as to the appropriate educational placement for the child, the child shall be educated in that placement during any further proceedings, unless the parent and agency agree to another placement or the child’s placement is changed in accordance with K.S.A. 72-3435 and amendments thereto."
"(c) If the due process hearing involves the evaluation of or initial services for a child who is transferring from the infant and toddler program under the federal law because the child has reached three years of age, the agency shall not be required to provide the services that the child had been receiving under the infant and toddler program. However, if the child is determined to be eligible for special education and related services, the agency shall provide appropriate services to which the parent consents."

Sep 30, 2026 · Record created. Built by tools/render-citations.py from tools/packets/kansas-packet.txt (capture of Aug 29, 2026): one record per K.S.A. or K.A.R. section the handbook's chapters reprint under a heading line of their own, carrying every reprint of that section across the captured chapters, in document order. Source 3 of that packet, a 2018 mirror of the whole handbook, is not used: it carries wording KSDE has since rewritten. Text is quoted, not summarized. Reviewer: Carrie Schluter, reviewed 2026-10-01.
