Tenth Circuit -- Jefferson County School v. Elizabeth E.

For a expenses at a second school to be reimbursable under IDEA, courts merely consider whether specifically designed instruction is provided and whether services are provided in order to help the child benefit from those services.

Exigent admission to inpatient medical facility without notice to the school district does not violate 10-day notice provision.

Where the District does not inform the parents of intent to evaluate, no violation of the statute in not making the child available for evaluation.
