Subject: Unanimous Supreme Court Expands Scope of Special Education Rights 



In <https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/16pdf/15-827_0pm1.pdf> Endrew F. 
v. Douglas County School District, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a major 
decision expanding the scope of students' special education rights, ruling 
unanimously that schools must do more than provide a "merely more than de 
minimis" education program to a student with a disability.
