[quote=Anonymous]Charter schools and DCPS schools go through the same placement process for students with special needs. The process has the same governing body (OSSE). This process is not "kicking kids out" in either situation. It is finding the Least Restrictive Environment for each child with a disability (as mandated in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act). For many children with disabilities, this is the general education setting. For others, it is not. Before an outside placement can be made for any student with a disability (and yes, this is ONLY for students with identified disabilities that have an IEP in place that can be proven to be failing that student), there must be ample data that suggest that the general education setting is not the LRE. For students without disabilities, there is no way OSSE can give an alternative placement. So again, false information. [/quote]
