PER CURIAM:

     Appellants appeal from the district court's order declining to

assert jurisdiction over this action pursuant to the Individuals

with Disabilities Education Act. 20 U.S.C.A. §§ 1400-1485 (West

1990 & Supp. 1995). We have reviewed the record and the district

court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss on the reasoning of

the district court. Bloom v. School Bd. Stafford, No. CA-95-661-A
(E.D. Va. Aug. 15, 1995). We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.




                                                         DISMISSED
