See you on the West Coast!
I am a Special Education student taking a Litigation and Law class. I need to interview knowledgeable attorneys from each state for my final assignment. Below are the questions the school has required me to ask. Thanks again for your help!
1. Where can I find state laws regarding special education?
2. How has the legal system evolved as it applies to special education over the past 20 years?
3. How have the changes affected the legal framework for special education today?
4. How does the legal framework differ for special needs students from regular students in private and public schools?
5. Who monitors the implementation and evaluation of individualized education plans in private and public schools?
6. In your opinion, are there any elements of special education law that need to be refined, changed, or eliminated?
