A Guide to School Services in Speech-Language Pathology, Fifth Edition serves as a must read for school-based speech-language pathologists (SLPs), college instructors, and students-in-training. The text begins by providing a brief history of school-based SLP services. The foundations of school services are highlighted including the legal mandates set forth in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA); Every Student Succeeds Act, Americans with Disabilities Act; and landmark court cases that have influenced school services – such as the 2023 Midthun-Hensen & Hensen v. GHC court ruling regarding evidence-based practices.
