School
districts must ensure that students with disabilities are provided
the same protections that they otherwise would receive under
the Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Section
504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and Title II of the American’s
with Disabilities Act. |

A
school to which a student transfers may elect to implement the
IEP (individualized education program) developed by the prior
school, or to convene an IEP team meeting and develop a new
IEP plan in consultation with the parents. |

School
districts are not required to offer students with disabilities
the same choices of schools as it offers non-disabled students.
The District should match the abilities and needs of a student
with disabilities with those that have the ability to provide
FAPE. |

A
change of location of the delivery of services does not constitute
a “change in placement” as defined by IDEA. |
