Should schools be held accountable ONLY if they acted in bad faith?
The A.J.T. case raised a critical question about disability discrimination under Section 504 and the ADA.
For years, certain courts applied a heightened standard requiring families to prove bad faith or gross misjudgment in education-related disability discrimination claims.
But in 2025, the Supreme Court rejected that heightened standard, strengthening the ability of students with disabilities to pursue their rights under these laws.
Parents, knowing the legal protections available to your child can make a powerful difference in advocacy!
