41. DoDEA: Director For Special Education Removal of disabled children from the regular as small group and individual instruction,special equipment and south carolina Services Information System (SCSIS http://www.laurel-bay.odedodea.edu/sped/sped.htm

Director for Special Education It is the responsibility of all Department of Defense (DoD) Domestic Dependent Elementary and Secondary Schools (DDESS) systems to provide an appropriate education for all students. Some students have special needs that cannot be met through the regular education curriculum. According to DoD DDESS’ regulations, all children with special education needs must be identified, evaluated, and served through the school system. Related services such as speech-language, occupational therapy, physical therapy, psychological services, counseling, and transportation must be made available to special education students who require such assistance in order to benefit from their special education placements. As a part of DDESS, Laurel Bay and Fort Jackson Schools are required to follow the 32 CFR Part 80 in serving disabled children, ages three years through sixth grade. The identification, assessment, and provisions of programs for disabled students in special education and related services must comply with this instruction as it is designed for DoD DDESS. Also, to the maximum extent appropriate, disabled children are to be educated with children who are not disabled. Removal of disabled children from the regular educational environment occurs only when the nature or severity of the condition is such that education in regular classes with the use of supplementary aids and services cannot be achieved satisfactorily. Special educators are trained to work with children and to provide consultation services to teachers and parents. This helps to assure that specific problems will be managed in a professional manner focusing on each child’s individual strengths, deficits, and needs. In addition to special settings, such as small group and individual instruction, special equipment and materials are made available to assist students in their classrooms to promote the specific methods and techniques necessary in helping students learn.

ECS StateNotes Special Education - Finance Education Commission of the States • 700 Broadway, Suite 1200 • Denver, CO 80203-3460 • 303-299-3600 • fax 303-296-8332 • www.ecs.org Special Education - Finance September 2000 States have chosen several different ways to incorporate the higher cost of educating a special education student into their financing formulas. Some states, such as New Hampshire, simply weight all special education students the same in their formulas. This means that a student with a substantial physical disability has the same weight as a student with a minor reading disability if both students are enrolled in special education programs. Some states have created subcategories of special education students and provided each of those with a specific weight (e.g, South Carolina and Texas). Another approach is to weight a student based on his or her ability to spend time in a “regular classroom” (e.g., Iowa). This system provides the student a higher formula weight for the extra time he or she must spend outside of a regular classroom. A fourth approach is to provide all special education students with a single weight plus an additional weight based on the district’s financial need (e.g., New York). A further description of each of these systems, along with Web links, can be found below.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2000 One mold charters can't break By Marjorie Coeyman Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor NEW YORK The United Charter School is designed to serve 1,200 children in a low-income neighborhood in Baton Rouge, La. It is widely supported by area residents, who are almost entirely African-American. It's in compliance with the Louisiana state charter law. STAYING FOCUSED: First-graders keep pencils moving at Philadelphia's Harambee Institute for Science and Technology. Public charter schools like this one provide an alternative to regular public schools, but some are starting to face charges that they don't meet federal civil rights rules. MELANIE STETSON FREEMAN - STAFF/FILE Yet the school's doors remain shut. The reason: United Charter runs afoul of a federal desegregation order requiring a racial balance in the parish's public schools. The US Department of Justice argues that the school will not attract enough white students. The case has created a situation some call absurd. "You won't find 10 people in this parish, black or white, who are in agreement with what's being done," says Jim Geiser, one of United's organizers. The United Charter imbroglio is just one facet of a larger problem of regulatory conflict. Charter schools are given great latitude on regulation in exchange for results. But the need to comply with often-costly federal civil rights requirements on racial balance and children with disabilities may prove to be a serious threat to the school-choice movement.

In the Rear View Mirror: A Review of the Year 2000's Transportation Cases Part 1 (reprinted from the December 2000 issue of School Transportation News By Peggy A. Burns, Esq. Special needs transportation, governmental immunity and bus stop selection were among the legal issues which focused directly on school transportation in the past year. The cases reviewed here are mainly state court cases and hearing officer decisions. While that means they have no binding impact on the courts of other states, nevertheless, they can be extremely instructive as to how a court might consider a particular issue. In this issue we'll review 10 cases that made it to state courts. Next month's STN will have Part II of the annual Year in Review. Special Needs Transportation Here is a sampling of the special needs cases decided in 2000. The Office for Civil Rights considered a parent's complaint that students in a district's Moderate Intervention Programs (MIPS) were required to ride a school bus with students with severe behavioral and emotional problems. The complaint alleged that the MIPS students were denied FAPE because of the physical and verbal abuse to which they were subjected. OCR found for the parents because the district "failed to implement strategies to ensure the safety of MIPS students."
