The Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA)
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is a law ensuring services to children with disabilities throughout the nation. IDEA governs how states and public agencies provide early intervention, special education and related services to more than 6.5 million eligible infants, toddlers, children and youth with disabilities. Each public school child who receives special education and related services must have an Individualized Education Program (IEP).
The IEP must include:
• Students’ current academic level of achievement
• A statement of measurable annual goals
• How the student will reach these goals
