On the Call: Service Animals
Who Let the Dogs In? Service dogs may not be there to eat your students’ homework, but their presence in the classroom can raise important legal questions for schools. In this episode, Erin and Jeremy dig into how service animals support students with disabilities and what the law requires of districts under both the IDEA and the ADA. They explore a case out of Minnesota where the court found a district wasn’t obligated to provide a handler for a student’s service dog because the support wasn’t necessary to provide FAPE. Tune in for practical tips on how service animals fit into IEP planning, and what schools can and can’t require when accommodating a student’s use of a service animal.
