EC School District<br />

wins Shack lawsuit!<br />

Staff Report<br />

Eagle - Mary Shack’s passionate<br />

attempt to get <strong>the</strong><br />

Eagle County School District<br />

to pay for outside services for<br />

her child ended in failure<br />

March 26th, when<br />

Administrative Law Judge<br />

Laura Broniak ruled that<br />

Shack’s child had received a<br />

Free Appropriate Public<br />

Education (FAPE) and that<br />

<strong>the</strong> school district and<br />

Mountain Board of<br />

Cooperative Educational<br />

Services (BOCES) had not<br />

violated it’s Child Find obligations.<br />

BOCES is <strong>the</strong><br />

Administrative Unit that <strong>the</strong><br />

district works with to provide<br />

services such as speech<br />

and language <strong>the</strong>rapy for<br />

children.<br />

Ms. Shack believed that<br />

<strong>the</strong> district’s form for<br />

requesting an evaluation of<br />

her child should have started<br />

<strong>the</strong> clock ticking o a 60 day<br />

requirement to provide specific<br />

services to her child, but<br />

this form allegedly titled<br />

“Evaluation” wasn’t <strong>the</strong> correct<br />

form she supposedly<br />

needed to apply with, ra<strong>the</strong>r,<br />

it was just a screening form,<br />

“It’s convenient,<br />

picturesque & right<br />

on <strong>the</strong> beach!”<br />

Simone Fodde<br />

even though it allegedly said<br />

“Evaluation.”<br />

Ms. Shack had based her<br />

complaint on 60 days from<br />

signing that form, not a different<br />

form that her husband,<br />

Patrick Shack, later signed<br />

that was also allegedly called<br />

an “Evaluation” form.<br />

Ms. Shack had copied<br />

certain members of <strong>the</strong><br />

school board about her<br />

request for services, but<br />

board President Jeanne<br />

McQueeney admitted to <strong>the</strong><br />

Business Briefs publisher<br />

that <strong>the</strong>y did not respond to<br />

Ms. Shack because <strong>the</strong>y were<br />

only copied in <strong>the</strong> emails,<br />

and that by policy, only she<br />

could respond on <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

behalf, and she chose not to.<br />

Superintendent Sandra<br />

Smyser also chose not to<br />

respond to Ms. Shack.<br />

Judge Broniak ruled that<br />

nei<strong>the</strong>r BOCES nor <strong>the</strong> school<br />

district “committed any violation”<br />

whe<strong>the</strong>r “procedural<br />

or substantive” that “denied<br />

a Free Appropriate Public<br />

Education, and that Ms.<br />

Shack had failed to meet her<br />

burden of proof.<br />

Ms. Shack may appeal<br />

<strong>the</strong> decision, but didn’t return<br />

calls to Business Briefs.<br />
