- Academic appeals.
- Appeal of a decision involving a complaint of discrimination or harassment.
- Eligibility appeals - cocurricular and extracurricular programs.
- Graduation appeals.
- Interscholastic activities and competition appeals.
- Music performance participation and academic/grade-related issues appeals (middle and high school).
- Placement in a nontraditional education program.
- Readmission to traditional school for non-elective placements.
- School transfers.
