Snow v. Volusia Cnty. Sch. Bd.
(M.D. Fla.), reported in 9 ABA Mental & Physical Disab. L. Rptr. 205 (1985)
This class action challenged a pattern and practice of discrimination against students in a school for students with disabilities. A preliminary injunction closed a school that the State had condemned as unsafe several years earlier. In addition, special educational programming requirements were ordered by the court at the new site. This case prompted a statewide examination of the cost-effectiveness of segregated facilities for students with disabilities.
