This! Most IEPs are not in full compliance virtually and I am surprised there haven’t been lawsuits already.


There probably have been a few here or there but they take forever to work through the legal system and aren’t publicized. They also cost a lot upfront for parents who take that route.


Instead of bringing a lawsuit on their own, parents can file a complaint with the Department of Labor’s Office of Civil Rights: https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/complaintprocess.html

They opened an investigation into Fairfax County for a denial of FAPE earlier this month: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.localdvm.com/news/virginia/department-of-education-initiates-directed-investigation-into-fcps/amp/
