Special Education Law

The law requires schools to identify children who suffer learning disabilities. If tests reveal a child has a learning disability, the school must provide accommodations. Schools must include parents in the process. 

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act ("IDEA") seeks to ensure that children with disabilities have access to a free appropriate public education.  20 USC §§1400-1485.  The IDEA provides federal funds to assist state and local agencies to educate children with disabilities, but conditions funding on compliance with specific goals and procedures.
