WASHINGTON (AP) The Senate, nearing its first major update to special education since 1997, agreed Wednesday to accelerate spending on disabled children but refused to lock in specific increases. Senators hashed over competing plans to fulfill the promise that Congress made almost three decades ago: the federal government's commitment to cover 40 percent of the cost of educating children with special needs. The matter is significant because states and school districts must pay for whatever expenses the Congress does not. That can amount to billions of dollars that local communities say they need for teachers, training, supplies and construction. Spending is the major sticking point in the Senate's renewal of the Individual with Disabilities Education Act, the 1975 law guaranteeing equal education to children with disabilities. As many as 6.7 million students are in special education. Senators of both parties agree on the underlying bill, which aims to improve identification and intervention of those with disabilities, simplify paperwork for teachers, reduce lawsuits by parents and give schools more flexibility over money.

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.

Human Resource Development Dentistry The Center participates with the University of Nebraska College of Dentistry in a program of rotations involving senior dental and dental hygiene students. The purpose of the program is to provide dental and dental hygiene students with: Experience outside the structure of the Dental College. Opportunity to see conditions that are somewhat unusual (e.g., dilantin hyperplasia, rumination damage, heavy calculus accumulations associated with G-tubes, major aphthous ulcer, unusual radiographic finds). Operating room experience. An increased awareness of the facility and staff and the delivery of dental care in a developmental disability setting. As a clinical rotation site, the Center provides dental students with eight blocks or three-week rotation periods during the school year. Dental hygiene student rotations are for one week. The rotation may be split between BSDC and another site. Supervision is provided by the BSDC Dentist. Students have the opportunity to observe, assist, and treat patients under this supervision and to complete assigned laboratory procedures.

She also utilizes ongoing formal and informal assessments that allow her to create detailed portfolios to show student progress that may not be evident in quantitative data alone. Ms. Banerjee obtained her Bachelor's degree from the University of Delhi in Indi and received her Master's degree from Boston University, where she was awarded a full merit scholarship. One of the programs developed by Ms. Fisher is her Peer Mentoring program, where non-disabled students sign up to mentor students in her classroom. This program allows students with disabilities a chance to interact with non-disabled peers and have their friends help them with their work instead of a teacher. It also allows the non-disabled peers insight into the lives of people with disabilities. Ms. Fisher received her Bachelor of Science in Special Education in 1986 from Illinois State University. She has received numerous awards for her exceptional abilities as a teacher of children with disabilities, including "Women of Achievement Award in Education" from the YMCA and Glenbrook North's Distinguished Teacher of the Year Award.

We urge on this website, in our manuals, and in our workshops for parents to learn and use the Federal Law. The Federal law is Supreme the U.S. Constitution has a "supremacy clause" at Article VI paragraph 2. Where the Federal Government has enacted laws, they are Supreme to state law. That means Federal regulations are Supreme as well.

Several of the people in my world know children who are disabled. I have a daughter who is one of the most loving, likable people in the world. Unfortunately she has sensory problems that can cause her to react in a very inappropriate and what seems like an undisciplined way.

Your Host Contact Us Refer a Friend Bridges.com ... education perspectives toc Reading Room: Education Perspectives How to Attract More Teachers to Special Education By Anna Lazowski As a result of mainstreaming students with special needs into the education system, many schools are finding that locating qualified teachers to work with the kids is a constant challenge. Lynda Van Kuren is the communications director at the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC). She is also a former special education teacher. She believes more resources for special education teachers are essential because many of those currently working with kids are not properly trained. "We have approximately 30,000 people teaching children who have disabilities who do not have proper licences. In rural and urban areas, estimates are we will need 20,000 special education teachers in the next five years," she says. Van Kuren says as more and more disabilities are targeted and diagnosed in children, the need for people who can work with them also increases. "Partly, that is a function of the fact that medical science has improved. Students who might not have been identified as learning disabled are now being identified."
