“anything from `the physical school attended by a child [to] the abstract goals of a child's IEP.'”
5 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“as the outer parameters of `educational placement' that it means something more than the actual school attended by the child and something less than the child's ultimate educational goals.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“The equitable balancing reserved for preliminary injunctions has no place in this context. * * * If we were, in the instant case, to import these equitable factors into the stay-put provision, we would dilute the statutory framework.
