1Opinion of the Court
REAVLEY, Circuit Judge:
The Flour Bluff Independent School District (Flour Bluff) appeals a district court’s placement decision of Katherine M. (Katie), a hearing impaired student. The district court determined that Katie’s 1994-95 Individualized Education Program (IEP) was not based upon her individual needs, and that her IEP violated the least restrictive environment provisions of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). 1 We reverse the judgment because the district court misconceived the proximity factor in Katie’s placement decision.
