The purpose of this study was to examine rulings of Pennsylvania hearing officers in cases that addressed procedural denials of a FAPE and provide recommendations to school districts. In order to develop recommendations, an examination of the 50 most recent due process cases occurred. The study examined the procedural regulation mentioned in the due process, who prevailed, and demographic information including grade band, disability category, geographic location, the percentage of students within the district identified as students with Individualized Education Plans, and the percentage of students who receive free and reduced lunch. Examining this data allowed for the development of recommendations for best practices in procedural compliance. In total, the central aim was to identify which regulations were most often the source of a due process hearing. Court rulings have little bearing on school district practice (Zirkel, 2017) but hopefully, this research will allow school district administrators to prioritize resources and improve relationships with parents and develop procedures that are educationally meaningful and legally sound (Yell et al., 2020).
