U.S. school discriminated against disabled, Spanish-speakers – Arizona
Tagged: border, parents, student“A federal investigation found that an Arizona school discriminated against students with disabilities and parents who speak Spanish but rejected claims that administrators violated federal law by doing random checks at the Mexican border to make sure students were U.S. residents.
The ruling by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights found that the Naco Elementary School had not met its legal obligations to provide disabled students with individualized education plans. The school also did not provide non-English-speaking parents with school materials they could read or translate at board meetings.”
