Part 2: A Visit with Special Education Rights Hero, Attorney Jack Robinson

Today’s episode is Part 2 of our conversation with Jack Robinson, a partner and co-founder of the law firm Spies, Powers, and Robinson, in Denver, CO. In last week’s episode, he highlighted his landmark case, Endrew F v. Douglas County School District, and we discussed its impact for students with disabilities across the nation. Our focus today is Jack’s perspective on the state of special education today and how things can differ from one jurisdiction to another. As we usually do, we are taking a summer break from podcast episodes, but we wrap up on a high note with today’s continuing conversation with Jack. As we put this school year behind us, we look forward to a fun and relaxing summer as we gear up for the upcoming 2023-2024 school year.
