"Do Handicapped Children Have a Legal Right to a Minimally Adequate Education?"

McClung, Merle

Journal of Law and Education, 3, 2, 153-173, Apr 74

Two landmark court cases have upheld the constitutional right of handicapped children to a publicly supported educational program, and to various procedural safeguards to insure fair implementation of that right. Neither case deals directly with the right to an "adequate" education. Presents arguments lawyers could present in raising this adequacy issue. (JF)
