http://www.specialednews.com/states/statesnews/MAnewregs071700.html

Extractions: Site Map July 17, 2000 The Massachusetts Legislature voted today to repeal the "maximum feasible benefit" standard for special education services, arguing the slightly lower federal standard established for the rest of the country should also be good enough for students in Massachusetts. Under the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, states are required to provide a "free appropriate public education" to all students with disabilities. While supporters of MFB say their children are among the best served in the country, thanks to the state's adherence to a higher standard, state lawmakers are drooling over the millions of dollars a shift to the FAPE standard could free up for other education programs. Under the original Chapter 766 of Massachusetts law, a student with special needs is entitled to "an education that assures the maximum possible development in the least restrictive environment." That definition opens the door for higher levels of service than the federal FAPE standard, defined by the 1997 amended IDEA as education and related services that "meet the standards of the state educational agency, include an appropriate preschool, elementary, or secondary school education in the state involved and are provided in conformity with the individualized education program" required by IDEA. Ironically, the two standards are not viewed as dramatically different from each other, despite the heated debate they have inspired. According to

The professional contributions of the graduates and faculty of the School of Education continue to have a profound impact on the lives and futures of children and adults, from inner city schools to rural and suburban school districts, in human service agencies and in universities.

The School of Education offers its students a superior education through challenging coursework, classroom-based reflection, research and clinical experiences that model a strong commitment to and belief in cultural pluralism, inclusive communities, and the integration of technology in education. These experiences, in turn, inspire graduates to take leadership roles in helping to initiate reform in their schools and to contribute to the restructuring of education for future generations. The education faculty, in their various roles as teacher-mentors, facilitators, researchers, consultants, writers, conference speakers and members of educational boards, commissions and focus groups, are the primary force in setting the high academic standards and the visionary goals of the School of Education.

Extractions: site guide? What is the Interstate Contract? The NASDTEC Interstate Contract facilitates the movement of educators among the states and other jurisdictions that are members of NADTEC and have signed the Contract. Although there may be conditions applicable to individual jurisdictions, the Contract makes it possible for an educator who completed an approved program and/or who holds a certificate or license in one jurisdiction to earn a certificate or license in another state or jurisdiction. For example, a teacher who completed an approved teacher preparation program in Alabama generally will be able to earn a certificate in Georgia. Receiving states may impose certain special requirements which must be met in a reasonable period of time. If you completed an approved teacher education program and/or hold a valid teacher's certificate or license in one state and seek certification under the terms of the NASDTEC Interstate Contract, contact the teacher certification/licensure office in the intended receiving state or jurisdiction.

http://www.fcsn.org/text/c766text/regsmemo.htm

Extractions: As you know, the Legislature made significant changes to special education through approximately 50 outside sections to the FYO1 budget. (We are providing the Board with an information package that contains all of the statutory changes relating to special education.) Eighteen of the outside sections require changes in the state special education regulations that were promulgated by the Board with an effective date of September 1, 2000. We have informed districts of the impact and have further informed them that we anticipate the Board will promulgate emergency regulations at the September Board meeting. Below is a listing of the outside sections immediately affecting special education. The final column uses the initial " R " to mean that the requirement is present already in the regulations or is incorporated by reference and therefore no additional regulatory language is proposed. If " R " does not appear in the final column, we are proposing a revision to the regulation(s) cited. All revised language is highlighted in the regulations for your reference.

Extractions: Commissioner of Education Date: November 20, 2001 In the summer of 2000, the Massachusetts special education law, Mass. Gen. Laws Chapter 71B, was amended to change the special education standard of services from the current "maximum possible development" (sometimes referred to as "maximum feasible benefit") to the federal standard, "free appropriate public education" ("FAPE"). The change is effective as of January 1, 2002. This memorandum is intended to help school officials, parents and other interested parties understand the effect of the change and apply the FAPE standard, consistent with state and federal law. The FAPE standard has been part of the federal special education law since 1975, and it is well-established in educational practice and case law. In amending the Massachusetts special education law to align it with the federal standard, the Legislature indicated its intent was to ensure that our public education system provides high standards for

All persons who practice social work, use the title "social worker," or refer to themselves as practicing social work must be licensed in Massachusetts, unless they are a county, state, or municipal employee, or a social work intern in a program accredited by the Council on Social Work Education. Practicing social work without a license or performing functions reserved for a higher licensing level is punishable by fine and/or imprisonment. Licensing allows state governments to verify that a social worker has the skills and knowledge to practice safely and to monitor the professional conduct of social workers. How do I obtain a license?

This task force has been assembled in an effort to better understand the implications of federal regulations and other legislation aimed at helping students with disabilities learn to their potential, namely the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) and No Child Left Behind (NCLB). Educators in every state in our nation want to improve the learning outcomes for student with disabilities, said Terry Bergeson, Washington States Superintendent of Public Instruction and chair of the CCSSO Task Force. We must take advantage of this opportunity to move away from our heavy emphasis on compliance to a stronger focus on higher learning and achievement levels for all students with special needs.
