Extractions: Moreover, schools are involved in a variety of commercial activities that require legal advice. Contracts for vending machines, pay phones and purchases of uniforms for athletics, school supplies, yearbooks, class rings, caps and gowns and school photographs, all result in significant expenditures. Schools make arrangements for fundraising events to pay for extracurricular activities and travel for field trips, and rent various pieces of equipment for their activities, all of which involve legal pitfalls. Such contracts are governed by NRS Chapters 332 and 338, and in-house counsel can expect to be asked to interpret these laws, and to represent the District in the inevitable bid protests brought by dissatisfied bidders and vendors in this process. Commercial contract disputes with vendors who have failed to perform as required by their contracts are regular topics of litigation for the legal office.

Extractions: "The question that Congress must ask is why have so many states had to introduce resolutions or pass legislation to curb schools labeling and drugging children? Unfortunately, the answer is that until IDEA is reformed, and Congress provides a physically based scientific definition of 'disability,' the diagnosing of children with subjective disorders will continue to be a national problem." Mrs. Patricia Johnson solutions for behavioral and learning problems in the classroom. When Congress originally passed IDEA, covering Special Education, its primary purpose was to provide a Free and Appropriate Education for children with hearing, sight, speech and other physical handicaps. Over the ensuing 27 years, the funding has been largely funneled, instead, to children with "learning disorders," a term so subjective that children who fidget, butt into line or interrupt their teachers are so labeled. In most cases they are subsequently prescribed cocaine-like, mind-altering drugs. Many of these children simply have never been taught to read. Clearly, there is a critical need to provide an objective, scientifically based definition of "learning disability," and this must be the central point of reforming IDEA.
