Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Exactly-- but I think ESY can mean more than just summer school. I'm sure I've heard that, but I'll have to research to see if it's true. Michele W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 If you find out that ESY means more than extended school year (i.e. summer school), please let us all know. This is something I've never heard. Martha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Pam: I want to hug you, but we won't get to see you on Friday, therefore can't until November. . I've managed to hem 2-3 pairs of overalls but am balking at doing more at 11:00. I cannot believe that this could be 's last year with ya'll and might just cry and cry.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Pam: Oops: if you're really serious, just double the hem. I doubt that we'll have room in 's suitcase to bring the overalls with us, but I'll ship them. I bet you never thought you'd be sewing at Perkins!

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 I looked it up, it was easy to find, because we had to mark it in our Partners in Policymaking class. The lawyer who presented was pretty clear that schools often misrepresent it to parents. This is based on AZ law, since that is where I live. Of course the feds make the general law, then the state makes their law to support it, then the state board of ed, then the local district blah, blah, blah, so it will be slightly different for ea. of us underneath the umbrella of IDEA. 15-881 Section D " For purposes of this section " extended school year " means additional special education and related services for pupils with disabilities to supplement the normal school year which are provided as part of a free and appropriate public education as defined in P.L.94-142. " Of course the actual law is a full page long, describing when it is necessary,(prevent irreparable harm, accommodate critical learning stages) how to determine eligibility (9 factors), what it is not for (daycare, respite, to maximize potential). The specific section in IDEA is Sec. 300.309 And is only about a quarter page. Look to your state law for specifics.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 I hate to throw a real big wrench in here (especially since I still need to pack), but check around your state(s) and see what you can learn. Here, we've found that our district folks go on retreats to learn how to deal with the law. They are actually taught how to circumvent things they do not like/want. I was floored by this information but am absolutely confident of my source --- I guess our state requires a certain number of parents to attend these retreats. I don't think I'll ever get over hearing about this; meanwhile, these ignorant parents thought that we were playing with a fair playing field... Again and again, check your information, save your data. As one attorney said to us, it's not paranoia if it's true/necessary.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 Michele, FYI Ohio has the " regression an lack of recoupment " of skills, clause too. Lynn Re: Re: cool software Kim- Thanks for clarifying the ESY thing! I'll look up that section of IL later. I think we have wording about " regression and lack of recoupment " of skills.
