Description

Abstract Amidst the call for school choice and the popularity of charter schools lie the realities of students with disabilities, and federal disability laws designed to ensure those students an appropriate education. Despite state deregulation, charter schools are subject to all of the mandates of federal disability law, including the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Yet, are these schools enrolling students with disabilities, and if so, are they fulfilling the mandates of law and providing students the education they deserve? This article presents results of a 2001 study of Texas' charter schools that addresses these questions.
