[quote=Anonymous]There are special trainings run by the school attorney associations and school administrators groups where they teach those staff strategies to manage parents so that they avoid enforceable commitments to educating children with disabilities. They learn things like responding to emails with a phone call, suspending kids with disabilities repeatedly as a harassment tactic and also to tell staff it is illegal to say things like dyslexia since they aren’t qualified to diagnose. IDEA is the only federal law enforced entirely by private citizens aka parents. If only we spent equivalent energy on universal design for instruction, structured literacy for all, appropriate standards for early childhood to include more fine motor development and social emotional learning. But our curricula are now defined by what can be easily measured on standardized tests, our teachers aren’t prepared to use effective reading instruction and after COVID everyone is burned out.[/quote]
