[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with 6:14. This was also the subject of the recent Supreme Court decision -- it has to be more than minimal progress but I think "closing the gap" is not realistic. The purpose of Special Ed is not to catch a student up and reunify them with the class.[/quote] I'm not sure how meaningful this will be as it is not very concrete. It says that school must provide students with opportunities to make meaningful, appropriately ambitious progress. Schools can provide opportunities, but the student may not participate. What does meaningful mean? Who decides what appropriately ambitious is?[/quote]
