STATE HEARING OFFICER RULES
FOR PARENTS OF CHILD WITH AUTISM.
State hearing officer Linda Cerro, one of the most experienced
hearing officers in the state, has ruled for the parents of D.S, a little boy
with autism and cerebral palsy. Finding that the parents had proved the
Anchorage School District did not provide D.S. with a free appropriate public
education, Cerro ordered the ASD to pay reimbursement for the parents' private
program and to use Autism Partnership, a private program to manage the child's
program forward. The ASD is appealing to federal court.
