Free Appropriate Public Education, an educational right of children with disabilities in the United States
FAPE |
Enacted in 1990 (and reauthorized in 1997 and 2004), IDEA was the reauthorization of PL 94–142 and continued the emphasis upon FAPE, IEP, LRE, and physical education as a direct educational service.
In commissioning work, FAPE is assisted by an advisory committee of prominent arts professionals, chaired by Robert Storr, Dean of the Yale School of Art.
Studzinski is also on the board of directors of several organizations: Bowdoin College, FAPE, Passage Day Care Center for the Homeless, American Patrons of the Tate, the Royal Parks Foundation, and the Royal College of Art.
However, in the United States, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) requires school districts to provide a Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) to all children over the age of three.
