8. Requesting Mediation
When would I make a request for mediation?
Mediation may be used if you have a serious disagreement with the school. In mediation,
you and school personnel sit down with an impartial third person (called a mediator). All
parties then try to reach an agreement. Mediation is voluntary, though, and both parties
must agree to meet with a mediator. There are benefits to mediation, both for you and for the
school. Mediation agreements are binding and enforceable agreements.
