DETRIOT, MI, UNITED STATES, April 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- K Altman Law1, a national leader in Special Education advocacy2, is speaking out following revelations from a Boston Globe article involving Northampton Public Schools administrators disparaging a parent and admitting to failing to deliver federally mandated services for a child with disabilities.— Keith Altman
The controversy erupted when the parent, Gaurav Jashnani, obtained a transcript of a recorded IEP meeting in which school staff—believing the recording had ended—called him “a pain in the ass” and discussed going “to war” with him over his efforts to secure accommodations for his child. They also admitted the district was not providing the support the child was legally entitled to receive.
