• W304207812 abstract "Board of Education v. Rowley^ remains the most important American special education case ever decided. At least 3,279 cases cite it. It stands as the Supreme Court's sole pronouncement on the meaning of the public schools' duty to provide appropriate education to children with disabilities, the fundamental obligation that Congress imposed on schools when it passed the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and it predecessors.2 Rowley interpreted the Act's appropriate education obligation as the duty to provide access to services that confer some educational on the student with a disability.3 This standard is one of a floor of opportunity.4 Although the Court cautioned that its decision was limited to facts similar to those before it,5 the lower courts have applied Rowley's interpretation of the law to all sorts of special education disputes. Thirty years after the decision, it is time to consider its continuing impact and the prospects for future legal development with regard to appropriate education of children with disabilities. This special issue of the Journal of Law and Education does just that. The issue brings together scholars conversant with the practice of education law with scholarly practitioners of education law. These authors contribute their insights on the continuing vitality of the decision, its ongoing influence, and where the path it set the law upon may lead in the present era and beyond. The first three contributions look at recent developments in education law and question whether and how these changes do- or should- affect Rowley's application in the future. _ Andrea Kaufman, a lawyer who is a professor at the DePaul University School of Education, and Evan Blewett, a DePaul law student, observe a change in emphasis in Congress's approach to education since the passage of the original federal special education law, which they identify as a transition from ensuring basic access to improving academic performance. They suggest that this development has made Rowley something of an anachronism. They point to the changes to IDEA in 1997 and 20047 and adoption of the No Child Left Behind Act in 20028 as indicators of the new attention to outcomes. They further question the utility of pursuing litigation under IDEA, as opposed to counting on the federal government to take enforcement action under NCLB or other outcome-oriented laws. They do not undertake an actual comparison of outcomes under the two modes of enforcing educational obligations, so that task remains for further scholarship. Scott Johnson, a New Hampshire attorney who is a professor at Concord Law School, proposes that the Rowley some-benefit standard be adjusted by statute or regulation into a -benefit standard. He observes that a number of courts have adopted this interpretation using Rowley's own language, and contends that it fits better with the current federal emphasis on accountability and state adoption of educational standards. He would further interpret meaningful benefit to include significant progress towards individualized education program goals based on the individual student's potential, and puts forward the additional idea of making neutral experts available to review student progress under the programs the students have been provided. Maureen MacFarlane, a Massachusetts lawyer with extensive experience advising schools, who is also an lecturer at New England School of Law, focuses on the development of the Common Core Standards9 and their endorsement by United States Department of Education under the Race to the Top initiative.10 She asks how the Common Core will affect the application of the basic floor of opportunity standard found in Rowley. She answers that by creating a universal level of educational adequacy and shifting the attention to outcome, the Common Core Standards may combine with other recent developments to lift Rowley's basic floor of opportunity for education and give the Rowley a more objective content. …" @default.
