[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't get to choose the level of needs you serve. That is a common misconception in charter schools. Techically, if you are an LEA (do your own special ed services apart from DCPS) then you are required to offer a full continuum of services. The fact that 90% of the charters do so poorly is a testment to how ineffective OSSE is.[/quote] You can choose to focus solely on SN. A few schools have done that, although they have not been successful. The Uniform Per Student Funding Formula is much higher to SNs, especially depending on how severe the student is. If you open a mainstream charter, you are required to take SN students, although oddly, the charters don't seem to get a lot of them. My son does have an IEP at Cap City and we've been pleased.[/quote]
