Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1990's, charter schools were a new concept being implemented by a few states and communities across the country. Today there are over 3,000 charter schools operating in 40 states and the District of Columbia. The growth of charter schools has compelled that we understand what charter schools are and how they impact responsibilities for special education at the state, local school system and the charter school level. Even though charter schools may be waived from some state and local regulations, the federal government has not permitted any waivers from federal special education requirements for charter schools. In the area of special education, research has documented that charter schools struggle on two fronts: (1) understanding their roles and responsibilities related to special education; and (2) amassing the capacity required to provide special education and related services to students with disabilities (Ahearn et. al., 2001). One lesson that has been learned in the past decade of charter school implementation is the importance of providing clear guidance regarding special education for charter school operators, authorizers, local education agencies (LEAs) and state education agencies (SEAs). Without policy guidance, personnel can be unduly burdened to create answers to each individual situation, resulting in ambiguity or inconsistency among charter schools. This primer has been developed to provide guidance to Maryland's local school systems (charter school authorizers) and charter school developers (operators) as they confront the unique challenges in developing and implementing effective practices to ensure the access and success of students with disabilities in charter schools. Appended are: (1) Charter School Resources; (2) Glossary (Acronyms and Definitions); and (3) Special Education Talking Points: New and Renewal Contracts for Charter Schools. An index of frequently asked questions and an index of key words are included.

Book Synopsis Navigating Special Education in Charter Schools Part II by : Lauren Morando Rhim
Download or read book Navigating Special Education in Charter Schools Part II written by Lauren Morando Rhim and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What ought authorizers do to ensure that the charter schools they approve provide a quality education to students with disabilities who enroll in their school? That is the question many authorizers wrestle with as they strive to strike a balance between fulfilling their responsibilities under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) while providing the autonomy that is central to the charter school ideal. As the gatekeepers monitoring entrance to the charter sector and, thereafter, the groundskeepers responsible for ensuring the maintenance of quality programs, authorizers are charged with making certain that applicants demonstrate the capacity to operate a quality school and then holding them accountable for doing so. Consequently, authorizers are uniquely positioned to ensure that charter school operators can adequately address the challenges associated with providing quality special education programs. This Issue Brief is the second in a two-part series on navigating special education in the charter sector. The first brief introduced the key constructs underlying the provision of special education in charter schools and identified strategies charter schools are using to build capacity to provide special education and related services. This installment, based on a decade of research on special education in the charter sector, outlines tangible steps authorizers can take to assess applicants' ability to meet special education obligations, support the development of special education capacity in charter schools and hold charter schools accountable for delivering quality special education programs. (Contains 4 resources.) [For "Navigating Special Education in Charter Schools Part I: Understanding Legal Roles and Responsibilities. Authorizing Matters. Issue Brief," see ED539289.].

Book Synopsis Navigating Special Education in Charter Schools Part I by : Lauren Morando Rhim
Download or read book Navigating Special Education in Charter Schools Part I written by Lauren Morando Rhim and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Special education and related services are mandated by the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and related state special education policies. Policies and procedures associated with implementing IDEA can be complex, cumbersome and time consuming. IDEA is founded on the notion that a free appropriate public education is a civil right for students with disabilities, a group of students who have historically been denied a right to an education on par with that of their non-disabled peers. Complying with IDEA is a critical responsibility for public schools and, thus, a responsibility that authorizers and charter schools must embrace. Adequately addressing the policy issues and practical challenges associated with educating students with disabilities in the charter sector requires thoughtful policy development and implementation on the part of both authorizers and charter school operators. This Issue Brief is the first in a two-part series on navigating special education in charter schools. The first brief introduces the basic foundation of special education and research findings regarding the legal roles and responsibilities for the provision of special education in charter schools and describes strategies for building a charter school's capacity to provide quality special education programs. (Contains 1 endnote and 5 resources.).

Although the educators in these schools may think they are prepared to tackle any problem related to teaching and learning, personnel, financial management, and community relations, many charter schools are overwhelmed by the need for complying with federal rules and regulations while at the same time meeting the needs of an increasingly diverse population―most notably those students with disabilities. In Charting the Course, Addie Angelov and David Bateman provide readers with a background in essential aspects of delivering special education services in this unique educational setting. Developed in collaboration with prominent charter school organizations and with the support of the National Association of State Directors of Special Education.

Used as a textbook in many universities, it lists and explains dozens of new U.S. laws and amendments from the past decade and situates them in the context of states and districts. It investigates the goals and requirements of dozens of education programs and clarifies government regulations affecting students as well as citizens who come in contact with schools, e.g., disabled individuals, job-seekers, employees, non-English-speaking parents and many other groups. Encompassing and yet going far beyond special education, the text offers pointers and case studies on how programs should be administered to improve learning outcomes as well as heighten a school's community profile. The detailed, concrete information in this book is indispensable for understanding government requirements, accessing the right agencies, reducing discrimination, and avoiding legal entanglements. At the same time, the 10 chapters of this volume are readily integrated into a syllabus for courses on special programs in schools.

Download or read book School’s Choice written by Wagma Mommandi and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Access issues are pivotal to almost all charter school tensions and debates. How well are these schools performing? Are they segregating and stratifying? Are they public and democratic? Are they fairly funded? Can apparent successes be scaled up? Answers to all these core questions hinge on how access to charter schools is shaped. This book describes the incentives and pressures on charter schools to restrict access and examines how charters navigate those pressures, explaining access-restricting practices in relation to the ecosystem within which charter schools are created. It also explains how charters have sometimes responded by resisting the pressures and sometimes by surrendering to them. The text presents analyses of 13 different types of practices around access, each of which shapes the school’s enrollment. The authors conclude by offering recommendations for how states and authorizers can address access-related inequities that arise in the charter sector. School’s Choice provides timely information on critical academic and policy issues that will come into play as charter school policy continues to evolve. Book Features: Examines how charter schools control who gains and retains access.Explores policies and practices that undermine equitable admission and encourage opportunity hoarding.Offers a set of policy recommendations at the state and federal level to address access-related issues.
Book Synopsis Charter Schools and ELLs by : Nancy Clair
Download or read book Charter Schools and ELLs written by Nancy Clair and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educators, school administrators, policymakers, and community members are responsible for providing a quality education for all students in the nation's public schools. Traditional and charter schools bear the duty to ensure that special populations of students have access to the best education possible. This responsibility makes it essential for charter school authorizers to not only have knowledge of these diverse student groups, but also to ensure that charter school operators are fulfilling their responsibility of providing quality education for all students. The purpose of this Issue Brief is to provide charter authorizers and school leaders with information about the education of English Language Learners (ELLs), illuminating the legal requirements and sound education practices for these students. This brief will provide authorizers with background information related to ELLs, the state and federal laws that affect the education of ELLs, and the education needs of these children. After reading this brief, authorizers will have a greater understanding of this unique student population and be better prepared to provide oversight to charter schools serving ELLs. (Contains 1 table and 7 endnotes.).

Download or read book Exploring the Evolution of Special Education Practices: A Systems Approach written by Joe Ifeanyi Monye and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the history of disability and special education practices from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century indicates similar ideas and similar human approaches that have developed independently over time. People who survived the eugenics movement were placed in asylums and segregated special schools. In Europe and America, the general systems theory has been applied as a "logico-mathematical" discipline to include students of all special needs categories in their placements and education. The systems approach to special education practices has evolved from a historical model of diagnoses and cures to the biological and ecological models, integrating technology as the driving force in implementing curriculum, instruction, and assessment.
