Procedural Safeguards

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), the federal law concerning the education of students with disabilities, and the regulations of the Rhode Island Board of Regents for Elementary and Secondary Education Governing the Education of Children with Disabilities, requires schools to provide you, the parents of a child with a disability, with a notice containing a full explanation of the procedural safeguards (your rights) available under IDEA and R.I. Department of Education regulations.
