[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about the gutting of our special ed programs, putting children with behavioral challenges in learning centers, and paying for Ivymount and the like for so many? Get rid of the Homeschool Model (which doesn't help those in need and makes the classroom environment challenging for teachers and neurotypical students), bring back the amazing special ed programs we had 15 years ago, and you'll dramatically improve things for all and free up money at the same time[/quote] Not sure if this poster is saying this in jest, but how will putting more kids in learning centers or paying for non-public placements like Ivymount help the budget? Learning centers have small teacher to students ratios and typically there is an assigned para to the classroom.[/quote] I read that comment as recommending the opposite: discrete programs for sped students instead of ad-hoc individual arrangements.
