What about public school? According to the parents' lawyers, "the special education program proposed by the public school system was inadequate to meet the child's needs." The child's learning disabilities were also not diagnosed until after he was enrolled in private school.
"New York City's top appeals lawyer," however, "argued that when a school district says it has a good program for special ed students, the law requires parents to enroll their children in the program before transferring to private school and seeking reimbursement."
Once a program is tried and deemed unsuitable for a child, the school system is then required to pay for "private placement."
According to the same article, "Nationwide, the number of special education students placed in private schools at public expense has risen steadily, from about 52,012 pupils in 1996 to 71,082 in 2005, according to the U.S. Department of Education. Overall, however, the number of such placements remains relatively small—just 1.1% of the country's 6.1 million special education students."
