Line 51:
Those who are deaf (by either state or federal standards) have access to a free and appropriate public education. If a child does qualify as being deaf or hard of hearing and receives an individualized education plan, the [[Individualized Education Program|IEP]] team must consider "the child's language and communication needs. The IEP must include opportunities for direct communication with peers and professionals. It must also include the student's academic level, and finally must include the students full range of needs"<ref>{{cite web|title=Deaf Students Education Services|url=http://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/hq9806.html|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160116005121/http://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/hq9806.html|archive-date=2016-01-16|access-date=2016-01-29}}</ref><ref name="SmithDD2010" />
 
In part, the Department of Education defines deafness as "a hearing impairment that is so severe that the child is impaired in processing linguistic information through hearing, with or without amplification". Hearing impairment is defined as "an impairment in hearing, whether permanent or fluctuating, that adversely affects a child's educational performance but that is not included under the definition of deafness".<ref>{{cite web|title=Regulations: Part 300 / A / 300.8 / c|url=http://idea.ed.gov/explore/view/p/%2Croot%2Cregs%2C300%2CA%2C300%252E8%2Cc%2C|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150715133544/http://idea.ed.gov/explore/view/p/%2Croot%2Cregs%2C300%2CA%2C300%252E8%2Cc%2C|archive-date=15 July 2015|access-date=9 August 2015|website=U.
