Could parents lose an important voice in determining whether their children are identified for special education services? In “ED.gov: Parents, You Are in the Way! Eliminating Parental Consent for IDEA Classification,” Common Core Diva examines IDEA parental consent, special education evaluations, disability classifications, and the role parents play in educational decision-making. The discussion raises critical questions about proposed changes to parental consent, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), IEPs, student evaluations, and the authority of schools and government agencies to make decisions affecting children. Parents need to understand not only how IDEA protects students with disabilities, but also how changes to consent requirements could affect parental rights, educational records, services, and a family’s ability to participate in decisions about a child’s education.
Lynne Taylor, the Commoncore Diva is back with some important news for parents, and not just parents of public school kids about how the Federal gov’t plans to eliminate parental consent to classify their children as “with disability” (special needs) for the purpose of accessing funds for “providers” (Medicaid, S-CHIP).
