The Daniel R.R. v. State Board of Education case set forth a two-prong test to ensure compliance with the least restrictive environment (LRE) mandate for students with severe disabilities. The first prong requires determining if a student can make satisfactory progress and achieve educational benefits in the general education classroom through curriculum modifications and the use of supplementary aids and services. The second prong involves assessing whether the student has been integrated into the general education environment to the maximum extent appropriate. Successfully meeting both criteria fulfills a school's obligation under federal law to provide education in the least restrictive environment.
