Which set lists the three major provisions of IDEA?

• A. Free, Appropriate Public Education (FAPE); Least Restrictive Environment (LRE); Procedural Safeguards — Family members of children and adolescents with disabilities participate in the planning and decision making for their child's education.
• B. Free, Accessible Public Education; Most Restrictive Environment; Procedural Safeguards for School Staff Only.
• C. Individualized Education Plan (IEP) Process; Supplemental Security; Teacher Evaluation Procedures.
• D. Public Awareness Programs; Student Attendance Policies; General Education Curriculum.

Answer: (A)

The main idea being tested is how IDEA guarantees education for students with disabilities through three core provisions: Free Appropriate Public Education, placement in the Least Restrictive Environment, and Procedural Safeguards that involve families in planning and decision making. FAPE ensures students receive special education and related services at no cost, designed to provide meaningful educational benefit. LRE requires students be educated with non-disabled peers to the maximum extent appropriate, with supports in place to avoid unnecessary segregation. Procedural safeguards protect students’ and families’ rights and require active family participation in the IEP process, including planning and decision making about the child’s education. The other options mix terms that aren’t part of IDEA’s standard trio or misstate who is protected (for example, shifting safeguards to staff only, or proposing environments and terms that aren’t used in IDEA).
