What this law does
Under Ed 1126.01 of the New Hampshire special education rules, each local education agency must file a written request for federal special education funds with the department of education in order to qualify for assistance under the IDEA, and must submit the request and any revisions to the department for approval. A local education agency without an approved request in effect is not eligible to receive state or federal special education funds.
The request must describe the agency's reasonable steps to ensure that children with disabilities who need instructional materials in accessible formats receive those materials at the same time other children receive instructional materials. The rules define the National Instructional Materials Accessibility Standard (NIMAS) as the standards defined in 34 CFR 300.172.
