[quote=Anonymous]Perhaps calling it a back door option was incorrect, but it seems to me that the way the Charters are set up- as individual LEAs, it will lead to more special education children being placed in private schools. Charters are not big enough systems to develop the expertise needed to provide FAPE for the wide range of special needs that may arise. The fact that they will not be able to place a child in a program run by other Charters or DCPS without parent consent, it another indication to me that eventually the number of privately placed special needs children will be at a higher % than in DCPS - especially for those special needs that do not present themselves before enrollment. I also predict a private school version of being "counseled out" to develop in the Charters.[/quote]
