What did Diana vs. State Board of Education address?

The case of Diana vs. State Board of Education primarily addressed the concerns regarding the appropriate assessment and placement of English Language Learners (ELL) in special education programs. One of the significant issues highlighted in this case was the inappropriate tracking of students into special education based solely on socioeconomic status and language skills. This case underscored the necessity for schools to use culturally and linguistically appropriate assessments and to ensure that students were not misclassified due to language barriers or socio-economic factors. It served to broaden the understanding of fair educational practices and emphasized the importance of equity in education, particularly for students from diverse backgrounds.
