School Law in Massachusetts is a comprehensive and highly practical guide to the wide range of legal issues surrounding public elementary and secondary schools in Massachusetts. The book sets out the essential information for each topic using numerous easy-to-access headings, lists, examples, Web references, and exhibits. Frequent practice notes explain the best approaches for practitioners, and special commentary addresses diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) issues in school law practice. Among the topics covered are school governance and regulation; employment and labor issues; student issues (such as safety and discipline, student assessment, and use of technology); special education; tort liability; and school finance.

The book's exceptional materials on special education include an overview of the applicable law, a discussion of practice before the Bureau of Special Education Appeals, and a review of approaches to advocacy on behalf of both students and school districts.
