Court Dismisses Disability Nurse Lawsuit | Colorado Springs News

A federal lawsuit against School District 49 and its charter school, Mountain View Academy, over alleged discrimination against an eight-year-old student with disabilities has been dismissed — both at the state and federal levels. The family claimed the school denied a contract for the student’s private-duty nurse, arguing it harmed the child’s education. Courts ruled that special education services must follow established district procedures, not private arrangements. Despite the dismissal, the district reaffirmed its commitment to all students, including this family. The federal case was dismissed with prejudice, and the state complaint was withdrawn by the family. Their attorney declined to comment.
