Supreme Court of the United States
A. J. T. v. Osseo Area Schools, Independent School Dist. No. 279
June 12, 2025605 U.S. 335
Summary
The Supreme Court held that claims under Title II of the ADA and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act arising from a school’s failure to provide appropriate educational accommodations are subject to the same legal standards as similar disability‑discrimination claims outside the educational context, rejecting the Eighth Circuit’s heightened “bad faith or gross misjudgment” requirement. The Court vacated the appellate judgment and remanded for further proceedings consistent with this ruling.
