- Labeled: The Students Behind NCLB’s ‘Disabilities’ Designation
Here’s a quote from the report:
[B]ecause the majority of special education students have disabilities that do not preclude them from reaching grade-level standards there doesn’t seem to be a need to rollback NCLB’s accountability measures for students with disabilities. To the contrary, doing so could hurt such students by reducing schools’ responsibility for ensuring that they are taught to high standards.
Happy reading!
