Ennis Britton's On the Call

On the Call: Placement versus Location

Jeremy Neff and Erin Wessendorf-Wortman Season 4 Episode 2

In real estate, it’s all about “location, location, location.” In special education… not so much. In this episode, Jeremy and Erin examine a Florida case in which a parent challenged the location of services rather than the program itself, thereby undercutting her predetermination claim and the argument that the district’s placement was not appropriate. Tune in as they clear up common misconceptions about educational placement under the IDEA and share practical strategies for navigating disagreements in the IEP process.
