West Virginia Resolution
Reveals Ignorance of Federal Law
A Resolution, H.C.R. 70, was introduced in the West Virginia Legislature in regard to the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court this past March in Cedar Rapids Community School District v. Garret F.
The Resolution accused the federal judicial branch of "passing down what are, for all intents and purposes, laws which require both physical and fiscal action on the part of school districts to provide for one-on-one nursing care for disabled students."
The Resolution continues "many experts have agreed that this decision 'blindsides' school districts with financial and staffing obligations for which they are unprepared and/or inadequate to properly handle."
Those "experts" are not very expert and only the ignorant could have been "blindsided."
Over twenty years ago, school districts in West Virginia and across the nation, denied enrollment in public school to over one million disabled students of school age. The "justification" was that the schools did not have, or did not care to provide, a service that a student would need to be able to attend school. As a result of that denial, the U.S. Congress passed several federal statutes pursuant to the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to guarantee "equal opportunity" for students with disabilities to receive education.
The first federal court decision in the United States on these new statutes and the duty of the state education agency and the public school districts to provide certain school health services needed to enable a disabled child to attend school was in West Virginia in 1976. The decision, Hairston v. Drosick, was principally under what is known as Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which applies to any recipient of federal financial assistance, such as the state department of education and county school districts.

Children Often Not Given Diastat in School; Denied Participation in School Activities
By Regina Reid
EpilepsyUSA Staff
Posted: August 27, 2003 With the 1975 passage of the Education for All Handicapped Children Act, now known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, millions of parents took comfort in knowing their special needs children had been assured the right to a free and appropriate public education. For children with epilepsy, the administration of medication is a necessary related service that ensures the quality of their education. While the majority of school nurses dutifully dispense medications orally, children who need Diastat often find themselves unable to count on the school nurse to administer it. Diastat, or rectally-administered diazepam, is FDA-approved for the treatment of prolonged and clustered seizures. Unfortunately, some children who require this treatment have been excluded from school programs, daycare and camps.
