In this episode of Conversations with the Co-op, K-12 Special Education Coordinators Jeffrey Lee and Lainey Sandberg discuss how the Endrew F v. Douglas County Supreme Court case redefined what is considered "appropriate" progress in special education. The case, which centered around a student with autism in Colorado, had far-reaching effects and changed the way that FAPE (Free Appropriate Public Education) is understood across the country. Jeff and Lainey briefly break down the impact of the case on special education, including its effects on due process and its implications for students with disabilities.
