What Went Wrong: How to Avoid Special Ed Litigation
May 6, 2025, 9 a.m. - 12 p.m.
This presentation will analyze the special education case law and recent legal guidance from both OSEP and OCR to ensure that your school organization can avoid the decisions that ultimately led schools to litigation. Each case will be discussed with a focus on the missteps or omission, including alternative options for action and legal requirements under both state and federal law.
