We’re not using the same measures and the number and needs of English language learners and special education students is not the same as it was prior to the 2010s. If you have worked in education over this timeframe, it is absolutely apparent how things have changed, but to those on the outside, it might not seem that different

Let’s compare non-special needs and non-ELLs across the decades. Even typical, Gen-Ed kids are worse off now. Inclusion makes people feel good, but produces shtty outcomes.

Yes, and it has nothing to do with helping special education students. It’s about the special education teacher shortage, and how they can get their required minimum hours with a skeleton crew, not because the schools are being cheap, but because they can’t find enough people.

And because special education isn’t limited to kids with actual disabilities, but includes a large number of kids with massive behavioral issues due to poor parenting.

Money would be better spent providing parenting classes in some of these situations.

Just saying that does not make it true. Tell us what makes you think this? What supports this? Give us evidence. I'd really like to hear it.

Blaming drops in test scores, which has happened across the board for all students of all demographics, disregards the impact of terrible EduTech and screens, the lack of an actual math curriculum, the end of formal differentiation for gifted students in elementary, and the lasting gaps left by Lucy Calkins.

There are lots of things APS could be doing to improve scores. But they aren't.

Your kid doesn’t need an IEP. They need you to take the iPad away and actually parent them.

The schools that need intensive support are not surprising.
