[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many sped teachers are fleeing to ESOL You are still helping students but the work load is easier [/quote] There’s less paperwork, but many EMLs in MCPS are twice-exceptional. Last year, all but two of my EML students had an IEP and all but two of my IEP students were an EML. Often, it is unclear whether limited language proficiency or a LD is the cause of a failure to grasp a particular skill or piece of content. I was very happy to be the general students. [/quote] I have EML students who have significant special needs that are beyond language learning. The whole system is designed to deprioritize these students. An intervention for testing at the International office needs to be institutionalized. Instead, these students are simply passed along to schools.Without IEPs, these exceptional students have the rights as any mainstream student. They need more, but it takes up to two years.[/quote]
