What happens when a school refuses to provide the instruction a student needs?
In the A.J.T. case, a student with severe epilepsy needed an adjusted school schedule because frequent morning seizures prevented her from attending traditional school hours.
When her family requested additional instruction, the district refused.
Her parents pursued multiple legal avenues, including a state complaint and due process. An administrative law judge found a denial of Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) and ordered compensatory education.
Parents, when your child's disability affects school attendance, their educational needs still matter. Know your rights and advocate for appropriate services!
