Sign up to receive news Does Your Child Have Special Needs? Integrated Classes May Be the Answer If your child has special needs, chances are good that he or she spends most of the time in a segregated special education class. More than half the children receiving special education services in New York City - 54% are taught in classes in which they are separated from their peers for most of the day. That's more than twice the national rate of 24%. A new report says many of these children do better academically if they are integrated in regular classes - as long as they still receive the extra help they need. The report, Learning Together: Lessons in Inclusive Education in New York City released by a coalition of New York City advocacy groups, says disabled children in integrated classes are three times more likely to pass standardized tests than those in segregated settings. If you think your child may benefit from a so-called "inclusion class" (in which children with special needs are integrated in general education classes), be sure to look at this 25-page report by the Least Restrictive Environment Coalition, which highlights three elementary schools and two high schools that offer model inclusion classes.

Travel New York City November 2002 Phi Delta Kappa Sponsors Panel of Experts to Discuss Changes on the Horizon for Special Education By Marie Holmes Within the evolving field of special education, the ramifications of President Bush’s No Child Left Behind legislation are felt acutely. When President Ford signed into law the Education for Handicapped Children bill (94-142), establishing that children with disabilities were entitled to the same free, public education as all other children, only 33 states were providing such services. This legislation was not a result of the Ford administration’s good intentions, explained educator James Fogarty to a group of teachers and other education professionals at a Phi Delta Kappa lecture program held recently at Pace University. The law, revamped in 1997 and now known as IDEA—the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act—followed a lawsuit ( Penn vs. ARC

RELEASE DATE: July 16, 1999 Ground Broken For Special Needs School A groundbreaking ceremony was held July 16 for the $8.5 million construction of a new Wyndham Lawn Campus School building at New Directions Youth and Family Services in Lockport, Niagara County. The Dormitory Authority sold bonds in 1998 to fund the project, which includes the renovation of the physical education building. New Directions Youth and Family Services Inc., a private, non-profit institution, was borne from the merger this year of Wyndham Lawn Home for Children and Randolph Children's Home. New Directions provides residential and community-based services to troubled children and their families in Western New York. They are one of the schools licensed by the State Education Department to provide special educational services for developmentally disabled students under age 21 who are emotionally disturbed, mentally ill, have learning disabilities, physical handicaps, behavioral problems, autism or any combination thereof. The Dormitory Authority was authorized by the State Legislature to provide bond financing for construction projects for Chapter 853 Schools in 1991. Debt service is paid from the schools' tuition payments.
