Question 1

Correct Answer:

Verified

The four major requirements are
1) an individualized education program for each student with a disability,
2) protection in evaluation procedures,
3) education in the least restrictive appropriate environment, and
4) due process rights. Prior to the passage of this law, the federal government did not require or govern the delivery of services to students with disabilities. These decisions were made on a state-by-state basis, and there were no requirements that students with disabilities even had to attend school and that schools had to meet their needs. In this context, many students were denied access to education and opportunities to learn. Following the passage of Public Law 94-142, schools were required to educate and meet the special needs of students with disabilities.

Mark Johnson is an 8th grade student who receives special education services. The school has had a rocky relationship with his father, but there have been positive interactions during the current school year. Mr. Johnson makes a request to his son's homeroom teacher to view Mark's school records so he can start making plans for high school. Mark's homeroom teacher is enjoying their positive relationship, and she does not want his father to be reminded of difficulties Mark has had in the past. She tells Mr. Johnson that it is school policy that parents cannot view student records, but she would be happy to report on his progress. What principle does this violate?
