mckerney -- I think you've just hit on the problem here -- the school system established the IEP, not the student, establishing the curriculum established the guidelines and they don't seem to have addressed this at that time. And only when they realized they'd goofed somewhat by not anticipating this did they try to change the rules in mid-game. And that seems to be where she won in court, changing the criteria only after she was in front just screamed discrimination.

If they'd like to change them in some way in the future, I don't think that would be stopped, it's just that you can't change them in middle just because you don't like who's winning.
