[Source: Disability Scoop]
The U.S. Department of Education is offering up details about how states and schools can address special education disputes in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The federal agency issued two question-and-answer documents Monday — one outlining considerations for Individuals with Disabilities Education Act dispute resolution procedures for services for kids ages 3 to 21 and another for younger children.
The guidance comes in response to inquiries about how procedures should be handled in the COVID-19 environment, the Education Department said.
