High Court Justices Weigh Funding for Special Education
The Supreme Court on Tuesday waded into the contentious debate that takes place in public schools every day between parents seeking special education services for their children and school administrators who are trying to contain costs. At issue is whether parents must first try out the special ed program offered by the public school before they can move their child to a private school program and seek reimbursement for the tuition. As is often the case, Justice Anthony Kennedy appeared to hold the key vote.
