Can we? Do we have to? What if we don’t?

Gain clarity on vague IDEA and 504 requirements for extended school year services — and limit mistakes that lead to due process complaints. This resource offers plain-language explanations of your legal obligations for ESY services in relation to FAPE, eligibility, IEPs, summer school, extended school closures and more. You also get 130 case summaries showing you where districts went wrong, plus model forms and tools illustrating ESY best practices you can adopt.

Empower your educators and IEP teams to make legally sound decisions with an understanding of:

• How the regression/recoupment analysis is used to determine eligibility
• Providing ESY services outside of the summer break
• How the least restrictive environment mandate applies to ESY
• Districts' obligation to provide ESY during emergency school closures
• And more
