Make sure you get practicum in the classroom, at actual IEP meetings, and meeting with parents of children with special needs. Also -- connect with the states Parent Training and Information Center.

Most law students do not have experience with school administration. A practicum with a special education administrator would provide for a broader perspective when in practice.
