Special Education services are considered an entitlement under Federal law and cannot be cut due to lack of funding. Children with disabilities have the right to be provided with all special education services they need and they must be provided free of charge. Some school districts also tell parents that there are waiting lists for certain services. Waiting lists also are not allowed under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act 2004 ( IDEA 2004). So the truth is that children with disabilities are to receive all of the special education services they need regardless of cost or ability of the school district to pay for the services.
