Abstract: An independent, 14-month study, conducted by the DC Appleseed Center for Law and Justice and Piper Rudnick, exploring the process for resolving special education disputes in the District of Columbia. Through interviews with parents and their attorneys, as well as District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) management and staff, the authors determine that there are too many due process hearings in the District; that the costs relating to them are already much too high and are escalating; and that, as a result, the special education needs of many children are not being met.
