Ohio parents win IDEA case without attorney

A Ohio family that last year won a ruling to represent themselves in an IDEA case won the five-year-old suit on Friday, with a hearing officer calling for the school district to reimburse them for their son's $68,500 private-school tuition. School officials said they were doing their best for the 10-year-old boy, who has autism, on a limited budget. "We're trying to balance between being fiscally responsible and doing what's best for kids," said Superintendent Sarah Zatik, who said the board is considering an appeal. "We think we provide a very good program." The Plain Dealer (Cleveland)
