Students with Disabilities Task Force without Discussing Learning Disabilities

We have raised the standards, we will include students with disabilities and second year ELL Students in the School Grading, and the last leg needs to be what we are going to do differently to help teachers and schools help our students succeed. Two days of Inclusion and Accountability Task Force meetings and very little focus on improving how we help kids succeed.

Today our kids learn differently, have far more attention challenges and are reading less --- fundamental changes are needed -- the scoring changes are only productive if our kids get a better education

I represent students with learning disabilities and in two days of discussions students with learning disabilities were barely mentioned and yet we make up 39% of the students with disabilities

A new task force representing students with learning disabilities, ADHD and related challenges needs to be formed
