[quote=Anonymous]Can anyone on this board describe how funding for a SN kid works in DC? I'm wondering whether a school (DCPS or Charter) gets more money to deal with SN kids, or if it comes out of the regular budget (I.e., competing with other school programs)? If I were a school administrator would I have an incentive to provide appropriate services, or would I dread a SN kid, knowing there'd be less to go around fir everyone? Or do you basically get funding for the providers (e.g., one special education coordinator), and thus compete with other SN kids for services? For example, one special Ed coordinator in a school with only three kids who qualify for minimal services goes further than a school with one special Ed coordinator for a School with 12 IEPs? Someone help me make sense, please. Signed, Mom of kid with HFA [/quote]
