District Files Appeal against Deaf Student

www.svgtribune.com/news/ci_6135867

Now, reading that, I understand that the school has offered interpreter services. They even have an interpreter on staff who is available. (in laymans terms, that means he is sitting on his butt waiting on a student to interpret for.) The fact also remains that both CART Transcription services are the same amount of cost as interpreter services.

What do we know of the student and family? The student is, by her mother's own testimony, only getting the information she gets because the teachers, in disagreement with the school supervisors, are instructing the Deaf girl through her mother, giving her everything she needs to help her daughter succeeds, where they have given it once already in a class, where it was missed because of no accessibility. Mrs. Solorzano is teaching her own kid things she should, with the correct options, receive in school. Why do her parents need to sue the school to force them to provide services demanded by the ADA?
