Can your child receive FAPE without qualifying for an IEP?
Karen and her guest explain an important distinction between disability identification and special education eligibility.
Under IDEA, a student must meet the criteria for an eligible disability category AND need special education because of that disability.
But here's what parents should know: Not qualifying for an IEP doesn't automatically mean your child has no rights to educational support!
Students who don't qualify under IDEA may still be entitled to protections and services under Section 504.
Parents, understand the eligibility decision and explore every available avenue of support!
