K.S.A. 72-3417
The Kansas Special Education Process Handbook, which the Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE) publishes chapter by chapter, reprints K.S.A. 72-3417 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.S.A. 72-3417. Same; list and appointment of hearing officers; procedure."
"Prior to appointing any hearing officer to conduct a due process hearing provided for under this act, the agency shall make its list of hearing officers available to the parent of the involved child and shall inform the parent of the right to request disqualification of any or all of the hearing officers on the list and to request the state board to appoint a hearing officer in accordance with the procedure provided in this subsection. If the parent does not give written notice of disqualification to the agency within five days after the parent receives the list, the agency may appoint from its list any hearing officer whom the parent has not requested to be disqualified. If the parent requests disqualification of all of the hearing officers and requests the appointment of a hearing officer by the state board, the agency shall immediately notify the state board and shall request the state board to appoint a hearing officer."

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.
