内容説明

The ultimate resource for success in special education-newly updated! If you'd wanted to be a lawyer, you would have gone to law school. How could you have predicted you'd need legal knowledge after all? Here is your essential guide. Osborne and Russo, past presidents of the Educational Law Association, are experts in translating legalese into a language educators can understand. Updated to reflect significant court decisions and new legal developments, this is your road map to meeting today's special education requirements. The latest edition features Extensive coverage of IDEA's reauthorization, Section 504 and the ADA, and FAPE and LRE New analysis of parent and student rights Guidance on discipline A preventative approach to special education litigation Focus on federal and state interpretations of the law Designed for educators, this practical resource allows you to focus on your core competency: providing excellent education for students with special needs. "Some books are carefully placed on bookshelves and easily forgotten, while others sit on desks with their spines cracked and well worn from use. My copy of Osborne's and Russo's Third Edition of Special Education and the Law will soon be dog eared, highlighted in yellow, its margins scribbled with notes. Read it and you will use it." -Todd A. DeMitchell, Professor University of New Hampshire "Every administrator should have this in their professional library to guide them in making appropriate decisions in scheduling and meeting students' needs." -Dr. Elizabeth Alvarez, Principal Chicago Public Schools
