School Rights: A Parent'S Legal Handbook and Actio N Guide: A Parent's Legal Handbook and Action Guide - Softcover
Synopsis
In one complete book, School Rights explains what your legal rights are in some of the major issues in education - teachers, testing, and curriculum - as well as some of the more controversial topics being discussed today, like school prayer, violence, home-schooling, and bilingual education.
Education experts stress that only by becoming active in your child's schooling can you make it better. And by drawing on the case studies and actual lawsuits that helped shape the American education system, School Rights shows how you can play a large role in its improvements. Here are step-by-step guidelines to approach any situation, including when to meet the principal, what to present to the school board, and how to set up a PTA subcommittee.
