Know Your Rights: Special Education Law

[Maureen Squires]

The Office of the New York State Attorney General (OAG) serves
the public interest of all New Yorkers in matters affecting their daily
lives and is committed to educating the public about key issues
impacting individuals throughout the state.
The OAG’s Plattsburgh Regional Office invites you to attend an
upcoming “Know Your Rights” presentation designed to educate the
community about special education rights afforded students and
parents and the responsibilities and obligations of school districts.
Community members in Clinton, Essex, and Franklin Counties
are welcome to join us for this event including those who are:
• Parents or guardians of school age children
(preschool or age 3 through high school completion or age 22)
• Teachers, teaching aides, or assistants
• Teachers-in-training (undergraduate and graduate students)
• Paraprofessionals
• Related service providers and those studying or training to become
a related service provider (i.e. speech-language pathology,
audiology, interpreting services, psychological services,
occupational and physical therapies, counseling services,
rehabilitative counseling, orientation and mobility services, etc.)
A Q&A session will follow the presentation.
Light refreshments and beverages will be provided.
