Education Law

Educating children is one of society's most important functions. As a result, there is a robust area of law dedicated to education policy, special education, and other legal issues with regard to the education system. Education law is particularly fascinating because it constantly seeks to strike balances: the balance between ensuring each child receives a proper education while maintaining a parent's right to decide what their child should learn; the balance between maintaining student safety, while respecting individual constitutional rights; the balance between accommodating students with disabilities under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and strict budgetary concerns; and the balance between giving teachers job security and intellectual freedom, while ensuring that they competently educate their students. This section has articles with in-depth information on education law for parents, teachers, students, and educational institutions.
