MAYOR/CITY COUNCIL BY DEPARTMENT BY SERVICES EMPLOYMENT ... HOME Search Calendar Maps Service Directory Word Search Education Four-year-old Veronica was paying attention the day a speaker from the Fire Department talked to her Head Start class about what to do in case of fire. The firefighter carefully explained that if the children ever smelled smoke at night, they should crawl along the ground, wake an adult and call 911. Several weeks later, Veronica woke up and noticed smoke coming into her home from the garage. Recalling the firefighter’s words, she crawled along the floor into her grandfather’s room. She awoke him and he started to jump up, but Veronica reminded him that they should crawl along the floor. They woke her mother and all three crawled to safety. Although the home was gutted by the fire, the family is alive and well thanks to Veronica’s quick thinking. The Education Division has two major programs: Head Start and School-Based. The mission of Head Start is to promote self-sufficiency by providing quality, comprehensive child and family development services. The city of Phoenix serves about 3,000 low-income children each year. The program has about 450 employees, including both city employees and those who work for Head Start’s 14 delegate agencies. Head Start’s dedication to racial, ethnic, linguistic and cultural diversity is reflected in its employees, who represent the rich heritage of Arizona. Head Start provides services in education, health, nutrition, parent involvement, social services and mental health. At least 10 percent of all openings are reserved for children with disabilities. Typically, at least 13 percent of the children in the program are disabled or have other special needs.

Education and Schools What Do Education and Schools have to do with Administrative Law? All public schools are funded and overseen by the Department of Education, a government agency. Administrative law regulates government agencies. So when a public school has violated your rights or the rights of your child, it is generally an administrative law matter. Why Would I Want to Sue my Public School? Sometimes, a school may violate a right you or your child is guaranteed by law. When this happens, you should file a complaint with your school district. Each school district has a different way of processing complaints. If you are still dissatisfied with your school after your complaint has been fully processed, you can sue your school and school district. What Kind of Violations Can I Sue My School For?

Archived Information A Study of Charter Schools: First Year Report - May 1997 Chapter III The Students (continued) Other Important Student Attributes To what extent are charter schools serving students who have special needs, are language minority students, or are from economically disadvantaged situations? To answer these questions, more intensive research is necessary for several reasons. The definitions of special education, limited English proficiency, and economic disadvantage vary from state to state. Moreover, documenting the services provided by charter schools involves in-depth research at the school level. At this stage, the Study can provide preliminary indications based on telephone survey data. Students with disabilities. Exhibit 16 Estimated Percentage of Students with Disabilities in Charter Schools, 1995-96 and All Schools in the Ten Charter States, 1994-95 State Percentage of students with disabilities Charter schools All schools California Arizona Michigan Colorado Minnesota Massachusetts Wisconsin New Mexico Georgia Hawaii Because we only have state averages for all public schools in the state, we were unable to draw on data for individual schools in each state to examine the distribution of students with disabilities in all public schools in the state. Consequently, these comparisons should be considered as only a broad indication of the extent to which charter schools are serving students with disabilities compared to other public schools.

January-February, 1999 No. 93 SENDING PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS TO PRIVATE SCHOOLS By Jonathan Fox The untold story of special education O Upon greater scrutiny, this oft-repeated scenario does not hold up. For years, many students with the worst disabilities have attended private schools at partial or even full public expense. Far from abandoning the needs of special education students, the private sector is supplying what the public school system has failed to provide. More specifically, public school districts currently foot the bill for more than 100,000 special education students attending private schools at an estimated cost of $2 billion to taxpayers, according to U.S. Department of Education figures and industry estimates. In most of these cases, public schools have come to rely on specialized private schools to educate their toughest disability cases, when doing it themselves would be prohibitively expensive. "A voucher isn’t really the right analogy," says Mike Petrilli, program director of the Thomas B. Fordham Foundation, which supports education reform efforts from a conservative perspective. "It’s really closer to contracting, like the Edison Project," the for-profit school management company that manages more than 50 public and charter schools across the nation. "But it makes a lot of sense to contract out this function to a company that can pool its resources."

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.

Occupational therapist Aileen Yamada supervises exercises by Variety School student Sam Mahoney, who tosses a bag into a barrel while riding a swing. The staff of the private school on the slopes of Diamond Head also includes specialists in learning disabilities, language pathology and physical education. The mission of the private school — formerly known as Variety Club School — is "to identify and educate children with learning disabilities and/or attention deficit disorders, and to assist these children in achieving their maximum potential." The 73,000-square-foot facility serves students ages 5 through 13. It doesn't have grade levels, but groups students by their level of development and ability.

EZRA Yesterday morning, U.S. District Judge David Ezra approved an agreement that in June 2005 will take him out of the business of making sure the state Department of Education complies with a federal law that requires a "free and appropriate public education" for disabled or "special needs" students. The mother of disabled student Jennifer Felix filed a lawsuit in federal court in 1993 claiming that the state had failed to comply with federal law. The Felix case subsequently grew into a class-action lawsuit on behalf of all learning-disabled children in Hawai'i.

39. Illinois H.O.U.S.E.: Homeschooling The Special Needs Child in knowing how to get services for special ed kids. the needs of children; condition and disability files and To subscribe LISTSERV@UHCCVM.UHCC.hawaii.EDU Text http://www.illinoishouse.org/a13.htm

Please update your bookmark for this page to http://www.illinoishouse.org/a13.htm Homeschooling the Special Needs Child Have you read the information on how to deal with questions about socialization, both from family members and others? Read them again, because this applies even more to those whose children have special needs. I remember talking to a teacher of slow learners. She was indignant that one of her former students was to be homeschooled. The child was already immature, she said, implying that being among her family would make her more so. Later I talked to her mother, who said that once her child was removed from an immature peer group she had improved dramatically. This seemed eminently plausible to me. That is not to say that your child should be removed from all peer contact. All homeschoolers I know are careful to see that their children are around other children in many situations. Church groups, Scouts, Camp Fire Youth (NOT just girls) and 4H are groups that are willing and eager to serve ALL children. It is an act of courtesy to inform the group leader in advance of the first group meeting, so that any special accommodations can be made and so that any appropriate explanations can be made to the other children. Don't forget that social behavior is taught by people of all ages, and that your child will benefit from exposure to a variety of friends of differing ages. What about socialization for the parent? I assume you already know the ways to get along in group situations, but homeschooling a special child can get pretty lonely. You can attend meetings of one or more homeschool support groups, you can start your own group if there is not one nearby, you can try the support group for parents of children with your child's difficulty, and you can join the council for Exceptional Children. There is a national children with special needs National Challenged Homeschoolers Network.
