Laws cited[edit]

The article needs to give proper citations for the laws it describes. The Public Law numbers are not especially useful; everything described here should be found somewhere in the United States Code and should be properly cited to the part, subpart, or section where the relevant part of the law was classified. 121a0012 (talk) 00:27, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Edits and reorganization by law student interested in youth and education law[edit]

I worked last quarter as a full-time certified law student in a youth and education law pro bono legal clinic. I have also taken Constitutional Law, Fourteenth Amendment, Statutory Interpretation, Disability Law, Legal Research and Writing, and Advanced Legal Research as part of my studies in law school. As a result, I saw some opportunities to make this article on FAPE considerably stronger - so I ran with them!

I reorganized the article, splitting it into three main sections: basics, history, and implementation. I added a number of sources and reworked sources with dead links. I checked quotes, paraphrased relevant material from primary sources, and added information I imagine folks coming to the article might find useful. Please let me know if you have any questions about the changes I made - I hope they serve you (or others) well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kegiordano (talk • contribs) 15:44, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
