In this week's Legal Ledger Sidebar, OSBA's Scott Gerfen and John Price discuss special education model policies.
They talk about the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce's model policies, the concerns with the Model as written and some steps districts may want to take. They also discuss the relevant deadlines, and the need for districts to take action by May 30.
If you have general questions about this topic, please contact the legal division on the legal hotline at (855) OSBA-LAW. Questions about your board's specific situation should be directed to your board’s legal counsel and policy provider.
If you have comments or suggestions for future Legal Ledger Sidebars, feel free to contact anyone in the legal division:
