Category One (telecommunications and internet access) has higher discount rates and is essentially uncapped; Category Two (internal connections, managed services) has a five-year per-student budget cap. Mixing the categories on a single application typically delays funding by a full cycle.
Schools that misclassify equipment requests get bumped to the wrong queue and miss the funding-year window. The discount can be 20-90% depending on poverty rate, so the stakes are substantial.
Board members owe duties of care (informed decision-making), loyalty (no self-dealing), and obedience (consistent with the mission). The duties are distinct: a member can satisfy care while violating loyalty, or vice versa. Most board mistakes involve loyalty (related-party transactions without disclosure).
State attorneys general can pursue board members personally for breaches; D&O insurance typically covers care violations but excludes intentional loyalty breaches. Confusing the duties leaves members exposed without realizing it.
Federal IDEA gives parents specific rights — to consent or refuse evaluations, to participate in placement decisions, to request independent educational evaluations at district expense — that are routinely waived by signing a standard IEP without raising objections. Once signed, undoing a placement decision is procedurally heavy.
Districts have neither the obligation nor the resources to re-explain rights at every meeting; the procedural-safeguards notice is delivered annually and that satisfies the legal requirement. Parents who do not know the rights cannot exercise them.
