The IEP (a collective team process including the parents and the school) define what a child’s needs. When the school repeatedly fails to implement the IEP or identify a child’s needs from the failure of a comprehensive evaluation, the children do not receive FAPE.

$16,000 is far more than nothing. Many families could take $16,000 add to that and give their children opportunities that don’t exist in MCPS. The program would allow for school choice.

Yes, private schools don’t have to accept students similarly to colleges can exclude students. However, there are private schools that value diversity and there are private schools that specialize for students with disabilities. [/quote]
If every parent of a SN child with an IEP decided to go private here with their $16K, do you think all the private schools would be able to accommodate them?  I'm thinking not.

Do you think the cost at that private school would remain the same with a huge increase in SN students who have IEPs?  [/quote]
