[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NO ONE deserves medals for how they educate students with severe disabilities.

This is a tired talking point. And it angers me that the only time it ever comes up here is when ppl are yammering about  DCPS vs charters.[/quote]

^^ exactly. it’s a union talking point that needs to be summarily dismissed. [/quote]

This has nothing to do with the union. NO ONE does a good job educating children with severe needs. It’s disgusting and a true sadness of the education system in this country. [/quote]

right, I know it doesn’t. my point is that it’s not an argument specifically against charters either. [/quote]

IME as a parent of a student with SN, it is. Charters can and do send these children back to their IB school which must accept them and where they will spend another year failing - or being failed by - school before they might get the support they need. The charters don’t deal with the fallout of their failure, DCPSs do. [/quote]
