= = = **Poolaw vs. Parker Unified School District (9 th Circuit Court, 1995)** =

In this case, the court ruled in favor of the district's offer of a residential placement contrary to the wishes of the family that their child be educated in a regular education classroom. The court stated that the child's previous and current district placements had adequately explored the effectiveness of regular education placement with supplemental aids and services. In doing so, the district found that the benefits of regular education placement were minimal and that the child's educational needs could be met appropriately only by the residential placement offered by the district.
