[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it costs extra money to fund these programs, how can they justify their continuation while simultaneously failing to provide basic adequate facilities to students (watch the recent BOE testimony regarding inadequate facilities)? Alternatively, if they don't require any resources beyond what is required in all other classrooms, it makes zero sense to not expand the programs to meet demand.[/quote] Are they paying extra to the teachers? Transportation cost could be an issue as well. Since these programs are funded from the "Special Needs" program - will they shelve the SN programs as well? I see it as a stupid way to close the "achievement gap". [/quote] No, they don't pay extra to the teachers. The extra transportation cost is truly marginal. And no, they're not going to shelve the special needs programs, which are required by federal law.[/quote]
