School Code and General School Laws
Thrun Law Firm attorneys were responsible for drafting the School Code of 1955, and participated in revising the School Code in 1976 and 1996. Consequently, we have a depth of experience with the School Code’s nuances and history that other law firms cannot claim. We also carefully monitor amendments to the Revised School Code and proposed legislation that would modify the statute.
Thrun Law Firm also monitors and analyzes new federal and state legislation, as well as case law developments, for its clients. Important legal developments are communicated to our retainer clients through our monthly newsletter, School Law Notes, and through periodic informational emails and faxes.
For example, the firm has devoted a significant amount of time reviewing the recently adopted No Child Left Behind Act (NCLBA) in order to advise our clients about this new federal law in a clear and cogent manner. As a result, the Michigan Institute for Education Management (MIEM) retained the firm to present seminars throughout the State of for local and intermediate school district officials.
