Full Description
This is an updated and revised version of the original (2005) volume that organized and explained virtually all federally mandated programs administered in public education in the United States. It explains the goals and requirements of dozens of programs and clarifies government regulations affecting students as well as citizens who come in contact with schools, e.g., disabled individuals, job-seekers, employees, non-English-speaking parents and many other groups. The detailed information in this book is needed for understanding government mandates, accessing the right agencies, reducing discrimination, and avoiding legal entanglements. The book is used extensively in university courses for school administration.
