IDEA is to ensure children with disabilities receive a Free Appropriate Public Education based on their needs. It is to allow children with disabilities receive the same education as their peers without a disability. The IDEA has opened doors for children with disabilities and provided a equal opportunity to learn. Children with disabilities are now able to be in school with peers and earn an education based on their needs.

Amy Rowley was a deaf student whose parents felt she was not receiving a fair education. The school refused Amy an interpreter. The school provided an IEP due to Amy using hearing aides. At first the court ruled that an interpreter was not needed due to how well Amy was succeeding. Later it was ruled as a violation of the EAHCA's guarantee.
