IEP Implementation-Placement, Mediation and Due Process Decision Implementation |
Decision Summary
____________ |
The ALJ concluded the parent failed to establish that BCPS did not properly implement the IEP, as BCPS provided compensatory services for the incorrect placement in a regular education classroom rather than in a self-contained special education classroom, and also failed to establish that the BCPS did not abide by a mediation agreement entered into by the parties; therefore, the complaint was dismissed. |
