Historical Timeline for Students with Exceptionalities

  • Diana vs. State Board of Education

    In this case, Diana the Plaintiff sued because she believed that the student's fourth-teeth amendments were being violated. Diana argued that the test should be fair and unbiased toward non-native English speakers.
    While the Board of Education the defendant in the case felt that the test, they were given was necessary to access students' English language proficiency and academic success.
  • Diana vs. State Board of Education Part 2

    It was found that there was a disproportionately high minority being diagnosed with Intellectual Disabled and placed in special education classrooms. As a result of this court case, any and all assessments used to diagnose a student must be non-biased and given in the student's native or primary language (Diana vs State Board of Education ( 1970 ). I have found a video on youtube https://youtu.be/g5jKxoT8L5Y
  • Board of Education vs. Rowley

    The court determined that the Board of Education was not wrong. The court ruled that the Board of Education does not have to give students with disabilities the best possible education or have to maximize their potential. As a parent, I disagree with this ruling I believe that every child deserves the right to have their potential maximized especially if they are diagnosed.
  • Board of Education vs. Rowley

    The plaintiff, in this case, is the Board of Education. The Board of Education believed that provided the student Rowley with adequate and reasonable support under the IDEA and FAPE based on her IEP.
    While the defendant Amy Rowley's parents felt and argued that their child was not provided the specialized services, she needed to achieve a meaningful education based on the IDEA. The parents wanted the school to provide her with a Sign language Interpreter so can fully participate in class.
  • Honig v. Doe Part 2

    Honig vs. Doe focuses on school disciplinary practices for disabled students. As a result of this case the U.S. The Supreme Court determined that schools (public or private) cannot expel students for having behaviors that are related to their disabilities. (The United States Supreme Court 484 U. S. 305, n.d.) I have attached a video from youtube to help better explain https://youtu.be/UbndmSCUS6I
  • Honig v. Doe

    In this case Doe the plaintiff believed and argued that students with disabilities have the right to have free and appropriate public education. Doe also argued that students should not be punished for their behaviors related to their behavior(s).
    The defendant Honig argued that the school should have the authority to discipline such as suspend or expel students with disabilities if their behavior is unsafe to others.
  • Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

    The advocate for the ADA argued for comprehensive civil right protection for individuals with disabilities. They believed that ADA is needed to eliminate discrimination. While the opponents argued that having an ADA can cause a finical burden while requiring more government intervention. As I understand the opponents concerns in hindsight ADA was needed to shape American and it's education system today.
  • Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Part 2

    The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) law required that every public school system in the United States provide free education to students with disabilities. In Part C of the IDEA schools have to provide early intervention services to infants and toddlers under the age of 3. While Part B requires that all special education and supportive services get provided to children and youth aged 3 until 21 years of age (About IDEA, n.d.)
  • Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)

    The supporters of the IDEA argued that it was necessary in order to ensure that all students with disabilities receive free and appropriate public education fitting their needs.
    While the opposer believed that it could be a huge finical burden. I have attached the link to a youtube video https://youtu.be/C1-dS1uM6DU
