[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It isn't that the law forbids teaching. The point is that they are still working on the same IEP goals from during the school year rather than new goals. ESY is to maintain or ensure progress toward goals. [/quote] Exactly, I'm the person who originally stated that you kids can't learn something new. For most students, ESY is justified to review and maintain skills, so that kids who would otherwise regress can pick up where they left off when they get to school in the fall. Now, will some kids progress? Yes. But that isn't the goal, it's not the purpose. There are exceptions, for kids who have missed a lot of school, or for kids on the cusp of a transition for whom a skill is critical to being in LRE the next year (e.g. a rising kindergartener who is almost toilet trained might get ESY services to finish toilet training). But most of the time ESY is to maintain skills. [/quote]
