  • § 2959b. Individualized education programs

    A school district or supervisory union responsible for developing an individualized education program for a child with a disability may consider the cost of the provision of special education or related services to the child if:

    (1) the district or supervisory union has developed the individualized education program in accordance with federal law through an individualized program team that included the parents;

    (2) the individualized education program team has determined that the child’s placement contained in the program is appropriate for the child as that term is defined in federal law; and

    (3) all the options under consideration by the district or supervisory union for fulfilling the requirements of the child’s individualized education program would constitute a free appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment for the child, as those terms are defined in federal law.
