[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really? Sped is just short for special education in teacher lingo. Not that you would ever mention sped to a kid but it’s a quick way of saying special education when speaking with other staff members. [/quote] What age students are you familiar with? In our kids' middle and high schools, sped is a student-on-student slur in active use. Also, you'd be surprised how much tweens and teens pick up from teachers who think they're talking only amongst themselves. You can't deny that this would complicate things for teachers. [/quote]
