Individuals with Disabilities Education Act
Endrew F. v. Douglas County School District

The U.S. Supreme Court heard the "potentially groundbreaking case" brought by a "Douglas County couple who claim that their autistic son was not provided an adequate education in the public school system as required by federal law." Access to public education through IDEA was affirmed in 1982 in Board of Education v. Rowley, but the quality of guaranteed education for students with disabilities under IDEA had not been addressed. This Supreme Court case has the potential to "affect the education of 6.7 million children with disabilities" as the Court "struggles "to decide whether it should require public schools to do more under a federal law that calls for them to provide a free education that addresses the children's needs. There are others who contend that the Endrew case may be applicable to all of the 76 million students enrolled in U.S. public schools due to the 14th Amendment Equal Protection Clause. The right to an equal educational opportunity is one of the most valuable rights you have, says ACLU.org. " "
