Ms. Scheller's nomination praised her for her "commitment, integrity and joy in all that she does as a volunteer teacher." She has "volunteered well over 12,600 hours in her school community, which as a parent herself has taken a great deal of commitment and sacrifice. Her positive attitude and enthusiasm have been beneficial when helping students to make sense of difficult concepts."
Jennifer's nomination added: "Her desire for no child to be left behind is illustrated in her examples of breaking down information for the children to understand."

StateNotes Special Education 700 Broadway, Suite 1200 Denver, CO 80203-3460 Fax: 303.296.8332 www.ecs.org State Efforts Regarding Teacher Preparation, Certification, Recruitment and Retention October 2003 The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1997 (IDEA) took bold steps toward ensuring children with disabilities receive the free and appropriate public education to which they are entitled. One of the major issues addressed by the legislation is the quality of teachers for children with special needs. IDEA ’97 requires students receiving special education services to be educated with their non-disabled peers to the “maximum extent practicable.” As a result, according to a 2001 report from the Study of Personnel Needs in Special Education, 75% of students receiving special education services spend 40% or more of their day in general education classrooms. Consequently, 96% of general education teachers currently teach, or have in the past taught, children with special needs.
Teacher Preparation and Certification
Special Education Training for General Education Teachers
How have states responded to the challenge to prepare general education teachers to meet the needs of students with special needs? According to ECS’ Teacher Preparation Policy Database (http://www.tqsource.org/prep/policy/), 46 states and the District of Columbia currently have statutes or regulations requiring teacher education programs to provide some instruction on teaching children with special needs to individuals seeking initial training in elementary or secondary education. The amount and content of this instruction, however, varies dramatically.

School Board: Cornwall: Better services for disabled students By JULIA O'MALLEY Louise Cornwall, 35, has no children of her own, but said she considers children's welfare her life work. Louise Cornwall A respite worker for REACH who provides support to disabled children and their parents, Cornwall decided to run for the Juneau School Board because she feels children and families, especially disabled children and their families in the Juneau School District, are being overlooked in the system. Politics and bureaucracy seem to obscure what is really going on, she said. "One of the biggest reasons I'm running is that I keep seeing horrible communication between parents (of special needs children) and teachers," Cornwall said. "I would like to see that addressed, and teachers have more respect for parents than they do now."

Bullying the disabled is another school issue Letter to the editor Karen Quick's letter of March 3 was of interest to me. She rightly expressed how bullying and taunting of students with disabilities is every bit as ugly, hurtful and repugnant as racist incidents of recent notoriety. As a co-chair of the district's recently-formed Special Education Parent Advisory Council I would encourage Ms. Quick to contact the council's representative in her son's school about her concerns. Her son's special education teacher will have contact information. To my mind the issue Ms. Quick wrote about is the issue that most effects the daily learning and living experience of special-needs students. The solutions to many issues in special education are dependent on forces outside the district's direct control - funding from other governmental entities is the most obvious example. But the issue of bullying and abuse of special needs students is one issue that is in the direct control of the School Board, district administrators and building administrators to either tolerate or to stop cold.
