IHBAL Free and Appropriate Public Education

It is the policy of the RSU 1 Board of Directors to provide a free and appropriate public education to each disabled student regardless of the nature or severity of the disability.

It is the intent of RSU 1 to ensure that students who are disabled within the definition of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 are identified, evaluated and provided with appropriate educational services. Students may be identified as disabled under this policy even though they do not require services pursuant to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Due process rights of disabled students and their parents under Section 504 will be enforced.
