Please join Sligo Law Group on Thursday, September 17, 2026, for a free back-to-school webinar examining the rapidly changing landscape of federal education law.
Topics will include:
Student privacy and parental rights under FERPA and PPRA, including the Department’s August 2026 Back-to-School Dear Colleague Letter
Federal civil rights guidance and enforcement priorities
Proposed revisions to the U.S. Department of Education’s General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR)
Proposed revisions to 2 CFR Part 200 and their implications for federal grant compliance
Recent Supreme Court decisions affecting education
Higher education regulatory developments
Department of Education interagency agreements and agency restructuring
Appropriations, funding risks, and planning considerations
We will focus on how these developments fit together, what remains unresolved, and what schools, institutions, agencies, nonprofits, and other education-sector organizations should be reviewing or planning for now.
Because the federal legal landscape continues to change quickly, we will update the agenda through September 17 to incorporate significant new developments.
