[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As much as you can go on and on about certain sped rights, where are the rights for the normal kids? This is causing underlying resentment and anger among kids, parents, and teachers. [/quote]

OMG, this, this, this.  The rights of kids with special needs, diagnosed or undiagnosed, trump everything else in schools.  I have been teaching a log time and I think when it comes to violence or behaviors that disrupt others, the law needs to support a MUCH quicker turn around time in terms of providing a 1:1 aide (I'm thinking within days, instead of months or years as it stands currently).  And then if that doesn't help?  Two weeks with the 1:1 and then to outplacement.  You don't get to screw up everyone else's right to FAPE simply because you have needs.  Nope.[/quote]

+1. I am seeing this sentiment all over educational websites and blogs. People are also noting, correctly, that school districts in major cities are not going to have an easy time recruiting even minimally qualified aides unless they significantly up the pay. [/quote]
