COMPENSATORY
SERVICES
-
"Compensatory education" is generally defined as educational services above and beyond that normally due a student under his state's education law. While compensatory education is not a remedy expressly indentified in the IDEA, courts, have awarded it in appropriate circumstances by exercising their authority under 20 U.S.C 1415(2)(B)(ii) to 'grant such relief as the court determines appropriate." Generally speaking, compensatory education may be an appropriate remedy when a student has been denied FAPE in the past." Compensatory Education

"In
Standards
for
Extended
School
Year
(ESY),
Nissan
Bar-Lev
describes
the
legal
basis
and
standards
for
ESY
as
defined
by
federal
courts
around
the
country.
Dr.
Bar-Lev
is
the
special
education
director
of
CESA-7
in
Green
Bay,
WI.
Letter
to
Given
(OSEP,
2003)
After
the
U.S.
Court
of
Appeals
for
the
Fourth
Circuit
issued
a
decision
about
ESY
in
MM
v.
Greenville
County,
303
F.3rd
523,
537-538
(2002),
the
Department
of
Education
issued
an
Opinion
Letter
clarifying
that
lack
of
progress
is
not
the
only
criteria
for
finding
a
child
eligible
for
ESY.
They
noted
that
"likelihood
of
regression,
slow
recoupment,
and
predictive
data
based
on
the
opinion
of
professionals
are
derived
from
longstanding
judicial
precedents,"
and
that
the
Fourth
Circuit
noted
that
ESY
decisions
are
fact
and
case
specific
and
a
showing
of
actual
regression
is
not
required
to
find
a
child
eligible
for
ESY."
