When it comes to accommodation requests, some people are willing to argue until you're both blue in the face. This is especially true when transportation is involved. In this episode, Erin and Jeremy explore a Connecticut case where a parent challenged the removal of specialized transportation from their child’s IEP.  They break down the legal standards under IDEA and offer practical guidance for educators navigating tricky requests, hopefully helping you breathe a little easier.
