Winning a FAPE case doesn't automatically mean receiving monetary damages!
In the A.J.T. case, the family secured compensatory education after findings that the school district failed to provide FAPE.
But their separate claim for monetary damages faced a different legal standard.
The case eventually reached the U.S. Supreme Court, raising an important question about the standard families must meet when pursuing disability discrimination claims.
Parents, understanding the difference between educational remedies and monetary damages matters!
