Pit Stop Picks Posted Aug. 04, 2002 Schools cope amid growing disabled-student population, special-education expenses By Kathy Walsh Nufer Post-Crescent staff writer Freedom made the commitment to ensure all children equal access to a public education well before state and federal governments made it law in the early 1970s, he said. Yet, in times of tight budgets there is no denying the mounting cost of educating everyone from the blind, deaf and medically fragile to children with cognitive and emotional disabilities and speech delays. While Congress considers reauthorizing the 28-year-old law now known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), area school systems are picking up the bulk of the bill for an ever-growing number of special-education children. Two dozen Fox Valley school districts spent more than $62 million in district, state and federal dollars in the 2000-01 school year to educate 7,597 students with disabilities, according to the Wisconsin Policy Research Institute. In the coming school year, Freedom, with a total enrollment of 1,590, will spend $1.9 million of its $12.2 million operational budget educating 215 children with disabilities.

A total of 13 non-profit organizations were selected based on their ability to positively improve the quality of life for the children in our community. The recipients are: "As the tournament continues to grow each year, it enables us to assist an increasing number of organizations that positively impact our youth," said Larry Johnston, chairman of the board and chief executive officer. "Albertsons is honored to be in a position of supporting such deserving organizations through a truly first class sporting event in our own backyard." Since its inception, the tournament has provided nearly $3 million to deserving community-based organizations promoting the health and well being of children in Idaho. Last year, 14 non-profit programs in Idaho each received a $20,000 grant. In December, proceeds from this year's golf tournament will be awarded evenly among the 13 selected recipients, with an anticipated award of $15,000 to $20,000 per grant. In addition to the 13 benefactors, the Albertsons Boise Open Presented by First Health tournament provides opportunities for Idaho non-profits to participate in a fund-raising opportunity. This year 70 non-profits will be selling tickets to the event. Each non-profit retains 100 percent of the revenue generated from their ticket sales. In addition, Albertsons provides a $25,000 bonus pool which is divided amongst the ticket selling organizations based on the percentage of the total sales that one organization makes.

Kindergarten, however, is an option that school districts may elect to provide. The law requires that a child be five years old by September 1st of the school year to enter kindergarten or six by September 1st to enter first grade.

Benefits of Providing Quality Support for New Teachers What Do New Teachers Need? Although there have been few large-scale studies of new teacher induction programs, existing data confirm that schools that provide high levels of support for beginners do retain more teachers (Goodwin, 1999). The Santa Cruz New Teacher Project (SCNTP), for example, which has been in existence since 1993, reports that 90 percent of participating teachers have remained in the profession (Moir, n.d.). Weiss and Weiss (1999) cite a 93 percent retention rate in urban districts that provide formal induction programs for beginners. Benefits for students and schools: Stronger connections among the teaching staff, leading to a more positive and cohesive learning environment for students. Less time and money spent on recruiting and hiring replacements (Halford, 1999). Benefits for teachers: Stronger classroom management skills (Educational Resources Information Center, 1986). Ability to deal with behavior and discipline problems more effectively. Increased job satisfaction for both new and veteran teachers (Moir, n.d.).

Foreword Introduction In Context Why Make Learning ... Conclusion The Northwest Sampler Alaska Idaho Montana Oregon Washington References ... Previous Issues Commitment to Inclusion at McGhee Location McGhee Elementary School 636 Warner Avenue Lewiston, ID 83501 Contact Mike Grubbs, Principal Paula Grillo, Special Education Teacher Phone: 208/743-5991 Description Several years ago the Lewiston School District looked at compliance with "least restrictive environment" legislation which stemmed from the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). This was done in a effort to ensure that the district was serving kids in the environment best suited to meet their individual needs. Teachers were asked to examine their practices of serving students through pull-out programs. They were then asked to begin eliminating the use of such programs and to instead serve all students as much as possible in regular classrooms. From this evolved the district’s policy of inclusion. At McGhee, all students, regardless of their mental or physical ability, spend their days in a mainstream classroom. They are removed only if they are in need of services that don’t lend them- selves to a regular classroom setting, such as physical therapy, speech therapy, diapering, or tube feeding. Since the implementation of this policy, evidence of inclusion is everywhere. With a glimpse into any of McGhee’s 15 classrooms, a visitor may see a child with a severe disability, such as cerebral palsy, bound to a wheel chair yet participating to the fullest in all classroom events. The person would also see other students interacting naturally with the disabled student. What the person might not see is the way students feel about their disabled peers—to them disabilities aren’t really an issue. In most of their minds, a disabled kid is just another kid, who maybe has to tackle learning a little differently than most.

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.
