We have discovered in this class that a large amount of the educational rights of children with disabilities has happened in the more recent history. There still is pressure to reverse many of these rights. One part of that push back can be measured by lawsuits filed against schools and educators because parents believe they are infringing on their educational rights. Yes, while we have rights we also have to fight for them. For this assignment, you will choose one of the six procedural safeguards to IDEA (zero reject, least restrictive education environment, due process, parental participation, non-discriminatory evaluation, or free and appropriate education) and.....

2)   Write a descriptive analysis of the particular procedural safeguard you chose, then.....

3)   Research a court case using the online library- specifically Lexus Nexus Legal Search Case Search Engine RECOMMENDED, or Fastcase.
