| The toolkit, available free of charge
from CAPE, was developed to help parents, private school officials,
and public school officials understand the provisions of the Individuals
With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) that relate to children with
disabilities who have been placed by their parents in private schools.
Reviewed and funded by the U.S. Department of Education, the toolkit
offers examples of effective practices, ideas for enhancing cooperation
between the public and private sectors, and practical resources
for delivering services under IDEA to children in private schools. |
| Advisory: When the toolkit
went to press (July 2003), the U.S. House of Representatives had
approved legislation to reauthorize the Individuals With Disabilities
Education Act and the Senate was taking up its own version of the
legislation. The House bill included significant changes in provisions
relating to IDEA services to children placed by their parents in
private schools, and those changes or others may make their way
into the final law. To keep the toolkit up to date, any changes
in the law, regulations, and U.S. Department of Education guidance
relating to services for parentally placed children in private schools
will be posted on the Toolkit Update Page
of CAPE's Web site. |
