Physical restraint incidents in Maine school districts

Statewide data on the number of students placed under physical restraint or placed in seclusion was made available in September 2013 for the first time.

Blank cells indicate districts that did not respond to the state's survey. To comply with privacy rules, the precise number of students restrained, secluded, or seriously injured is not disclosed if the number is less than 10 in a given district. These districts and programs are marked with an "*".

Note: Lewiston data includes data for the McMahon Day Treatment Center.
