[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AAP costs are minimal...last time they broke it out, the total cost was a few hundred K, and only for busing to the center school vs the base school. [/quote] This is not correct. The costs as laid out in the FY14 budget include things like $500,000 in central office IS costs, bus costs, supplies, etc. So the AAP cost is not simply the staff (which is in the $5M range per the FY14 budget - but all of the teaching staff would obviously still be needed). And the bus runs, while one poster mentioned that their child just hopped on an existing run, would not exist (not all of them) if the AAP program did not exist. That said, school districts are required by law to provide special education services to students, and AAP falls under that umbrella. How they deliver the services is obviously up to the districts, but it varies widely across the district as has been discussed on other threads. [/quote]
