Extractions: Written Testimony for Education Louise Green Three years ago I became the advocate for Shawna, a young woman with severe disabilities. Shawna is 19 and has fetal drug and alcohol syndrome. She is developmentally delayed . Has a severe speech problem, visually impaired, and has limited mobility. Shawna has reached her learning capacity and is now basically learning life skills. She is in the 11th grade and doing quite well , but could be doing better with the use of technology. She has never been evaluated for technical assistance with the school district. Shawna would benefit a great deal from a speech enhancement device to improve her communication skills. I have also done advocacy for another young woman and followed her from high school to her work place. Dianne is now in her mid 20's. Dianne had cerebral palsy at birth and has severe disability. She is motion impaired, partially deaf and has a severe speech impediment. Dianne has very high IQ and a lot of people skills, qualities that make her employable. In her transition from high school she was not evaluated for technology that could improve her skills either. She was transitioned directly into a sheltered workshop for the developmentally disabled and she had been there for 4 years. Dianne has above average skills on the computer, but she has learned this on her own . Unlike Shawna , Dianne could have been a candidate for college. With the use of technology for hearing and speech she could be employed in a lot of fields instead of wasting away in a workshop making wooden boxes for $1.50 per hour.

Jim Geringer On Education of the State Address to wyoming Legislature Jan ëfree appropriate public educationí for students with special needs; average cost of educating a disabled child http://www.ontheissues.org/Governor/Jim_Geringer_Education.htm
Extractions: Our University and our community colleges have a significant capacity to enroll more students. We need to provide greater incentives for our young people to achieve their personal and professional goals through higher education. We hope to attract as many as 80 per cent of our top Wyoming high school graduates through academic and career enhancing scholarships. Initially, the Horizon Merit Scholarship program would cost $5M per year, increasing to $10M per year once fully implemented. Source: State of the State Address to Wyoming Legislature Jan 10, 2001 The most influential factor in attracting new and expanding business to Wyoming will be the quality of our people and their skills. Our challenge is to continue to provide enough skilled labor that meets business needs. We are achieving the diversity of economic growth we always hoped for and now find ourselves competing in a regional and national market for the most valuable resource - people with the right skills. I am recommending increases in several key areas to attract and keep our citizens professional and vocational skill levels highly competitive.

School Spending 2002 - Who Holds The Purse Strings The wyoming Supreme Court education or special education services for disabled students, for oversight of school districts to make sure specialneeds and special http://www.asbj.com/schoolspending/resources0502guthrie.html
Extractions: School finance was once the clear and protected domain of board members and superintendents. Schools received money from state and federal governments. In some cases school boards levied local property taxes; in others, districts received tax money from county or city government. With few limitations, and most of those on federal funds, the school board then decided how the money should be spent. State authority, however, is now eclipsing local authority in school finance matters. State legislatures and the judicial system are increasingly holding the state, not local districts, accountable for an equitable and high standard of education for all children. Along with this responsibility comes state control of money and educational resources. The intensification of state authority over resources and education quality threatens to clash with America's long-standing political preferences for local government responsiveness and citizen oversight. If the trend toward state centralized financial power continues, school boards could see themselves edged out of their roles as citizen overseers of their schools. This situation did not happen overnight, of course. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, local control over schools reigned supreme. State involvement was mostly limited to building construction. With the post-World War II civil rights movement, state and federal authority over schools grew. Intervention, in the forms of judicial decisions and legislative efforts, was deemed necessary to open up public schools for all students. Racially segregated schools were struck down by

Extractions: The Roadless Area Conservation Rule, adopted by the U.S. Forest Service just before President Bush took office, protects the remaining 58.5 million acres of undeveloped national forest lands, including almost 19 million acres in Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. However, it is a priority of the timber, mining, oil, and gas industries, and thus of the Bush Administration, to reverse the rule. The Caribou-Targhee National Forest has already begun to test the legal uncertainties surrounding the Roadless Rule in Wyoming by permitting new roads and extractive exploration in the inventoried roadless area of Sage Creek. Earthjustice and Greater Yellowstone Coalition have lodged an administrative appeal, to be followed by litigation if the Forest Service rejects the appeal as expected. Retention of the Roadless Rule remains our best chance to give legal protection to the tiny percentage of our public lands that remain roadless, and thus pristine. Greater Yellowstone Coalition

The Legal Resources page contains many links related to laws that govern eligibility, IEPs, evaluations, placement, educational progress, transition plans, discipline, and educational records - all that are vitally important to parents of disabled children, educators, child advocates, school psychologists, health care providers, and school administrators. Special education law is more than a legal specialty niche. Parents of children with disabilities often describe their first experience with special education law as entering a confusing labyrinth resulting in uncertainty and bewilderment. Teachers and administrators are overwhelmed with the complexity of regulations and paperwork, fearing that failure to do things perfectly will result in a lawsuit. . We hope this section will provide practical and pertinent information necessary to survive and interpret the myriad of rules and regulations surrounding the needs of disabled children. We need your help to make the Legal Resources links current and of high quality. We encourage you to provide us with suggestions of site to link to this resource page. Please
