​PRACTICE AREAS - EDUCATION LAW - INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATION PLANS

Your Child's Right to an Education

Picture of child painting
No child should be denied equal access to an educational opportunity because of a disability. The Americans with Disabilities Act, the Rehabilitation Act, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, and other laws, administrative acts, and regulations are designed to ensure that this doesn't happen.

The primary tools we use to ensure children in  kindergarten through twelfth grade get a fair opportunity in the education setting are the Individualized Education Plan and/or 504 Plan. Both of these are designed to be collaborative efforts between the school and the parents/guardians of the student in order to determine what, how, and by whom accommodations are to be made to ensure that the student is given a fair opportunity to engage in the educational process. In 2017 the United States Supreme Court strengthened the rights of students by clarifying that a school is not only required to give students a minimal level of assistance, but enough assistance to ensure that they can make appropriate progress in the classroom. Even if you have a plan in place, you may be able to request a meeting with the school to review. 

If you feel that your child's educator is not meeting their obligations under the IDEA, ADA, or another law, if you need to review and revise an existing IEP or 5o4 plan and have met some resistance, or if you'd simply like to discuss your specific case to determine your options, give us a call or click on the button below to schedule online.
