The Supreme Court seems to think so. You'll be especially interested in Honig v. Doe. Honig v. Doe dealt with interpretation of a federal statute, not the constitution. Once again, Congress is the ultimate source of the problem.

Honig v. Doe dealt with interpretation of a federal statute, not the constitution. Once again, Congress is the ultimate source of the problem. While it's true that Honig was a case of statutory construction (specifically an interpretation of the EHA), Justice Rehnquist made it clear in his opinion that that statute was enacted by Congress in response to court decisions holding that the Constitution forbade the exclusion of disabled children from the educational process.
