During the case of Perez v. Sturgis Public Schools, the Supreme Court ruled that students with disabilities do not need to go through the administrative due process procedures of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) before seeking compensation under federal discrimination laws. In special education matters, this decision has a significant impact on schools. In order to reduce your legal risk, you must be aware of its implications. Sherrice Perry, an education law expert, will assist you in identifying the critical issues affecting special education. This will help you understand how it may affect your school's policies.
