Least Restrictive
Environment (LRE)
One of the more well-known aspects of this
law is that the student with a disability
should be able to learn in the least
restrictive environment. This means that
the student has the right to be in the
traditional classroom with his or her peers
(Study.com, 2013). For this reason, schools
are required to teach students with
disabilities in general education classroom
whenever possible (Lee, 2014).

History of IDEA
o IDEA was first passed in 1975
called the Education for All
Handicapped Children Act
(Study.com, 2013).
o Its most current form is based
off of this law and was passed
in 2004 under the new name,
Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (Study.com, 2013).
Free Appropriate
Public Education
(FAPE)
The Individuals with Disabilities Act also
gives students with disabilities something
called Free Appropriate Public Education
just like general students. To understand
what this is, it is best to break it down into
the words it is made up of.
While there are some fees associated with
school, the term free means that the
education for a child with a disability will
be paid for by the public, not the parent
(Latham, n.d.).
Each individual student is different, and
this holds true for students with
disabilities too. Appropriate describes an
educational plan that aims to meet that
students needs (Latham, n.d.).
Finally, the phrase public education is
key to identifying that students with
disabilities have the right to go to school
in the public school system (Latham, n.d.).
