Judge’s Finding and Decision Comments

I further find that the Student should have been evaluated by the DOE to determine his assistive technology (AT) needs as they related to his communication deficits, in that AT may be required to address the Student’s communication issues
- Administrative Law Judge (ALJ)New York City DOE School District
I find that the relief sought by the Parent Representative in the Due Process Complaint encompassed the Parent’s request that the Student be placed in a program specifically designed for his unique needs based on his ASD diagnosis, and that deferral of the Student’s case to the CBST will provide the Student with a FAPE by placing him in a specialized education and related services program designed to meet his unique needs
- Administrative Law Judge (ALJ)New York City DOE School District.
I credit the Parent Representative submission of evidence that based on the Student’s medical, personal care, and communication needs, the Student requires a 1:1 paraprofessional.
- Administrative Law Judge (ALJ)New York City DOE School District
I credit the Parent Representative submission of evidence as establishing that the Parent should receive monthly parent counseling and training sessions, rather than the twice yearly parent and counseling training recommended in the Student’s May 2023 IEP, in order for the Student to receive consistent support, interventions, and reinforcement across both the home and school environments.
- Administrative Law Judge (ALJ),New York City DOE School District.
I further credit the testimony of the Parent Representative’s Team Special Ed Teacher that administration of the Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills – Revised (ABLLS-R) Assessment would support effective and tailored interventions for the Student, as the Student’s current IEP lacks crucial information about multiple domains of learning and development, including verbal imitation, motor imitation, reinforcer effectiveness, joint attention skills, and methods to ensure fluency of acquired skills.

Company Background

Aisles Of Learning began with fervent attention to students with special needs who are sometimes lost in the public education space. While the United States Department of Education has played a pivotal role in creating the special education environment, often times policies and procedures have become more of an achilles heel for these students. Many parents with special needs children often do not have the right information about their rights and options for a better learning experience for their child. Most information is top-down – meaning that it often doesn’t relate with the parents or solutions appear far out of reach. All our consultancy services, advocacy, interventions, and programs are designed to uplift parents and children with special needs. We are ensuring the same learning outcomes for special needs children as are available to other children.

We work with families whose children have or need a 504 Plan or IEP. We vigorously advocate some of the most complex cases to build success and maintain integrity for the families and children we serve.
