Attorney Wong and Nashoba Family Prevail at BSEA

On December 6 2019, the Bureau of Special Education Appeals ("BSEA") ruled that the Nashoba Regional School District ("Nashoba") had violated the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act ("IDEA") by failing to offer a twelve-year-old boy with a complex profile an Individualized Education Plan ("IEP") that provided a Free Appropriate Public Education ("FAPE"). The BSEA ordered Nashoba to reimburse the family for their costs of unilaterally placing their son at the Learning Prep School. You can read the entire decision here.

Attorney Wong represented the family in this case. Parent victories at the BSEA are rare. In fact, this Hearing Officer hadn’t ruled for Parents in a placement dispute in over a decade. If you are interested in working with lawyers with experience at the BSEA, contact Wong & Boscarine LLC today.
