Yes!!! Those of us with our own children living with a disability owe a tremendous amount of thanks to those parents that came before us and paved the way. Before them, there were no academic safeguards for our children.

Yes, we do. My son had the same opportunities that everyone else did, with just a little help thanks to IDEA.

Hi Folks, I have submitted the documents in last week 8 days ago for Test automation position. But still I didn't hear for further steps of HR round. I called HR, she said my docs are under review, they will get back to me. My question is what time it takes to release the offer for Persistent. Also anyone knows how is Accleriote BU at persistent, would be helpful for me. Thanks

I’m currently working with a senior level HR candidate. This individual has a doctorate in business with a focus in HR, her SPHR, Federal, and private sector experience at the singer level, and has a fabulous personality. I’m curious is anyone else having difficulties play some candidates like this? At this point I’m starting to think it’s racial or her sex based of the lack of interest in this candidate. Any thoughts?

I am looking to find out what your school does with this type of situation. I have an 18 year old student who should have graduated in 2020, but at this time only has a third of the required graduation credits for my public high school. This student has been an EBD student since 1st grade, has an IQ of 96 and has diagnoses of ADHD and Mood Disorder. This post continues on the first comment due to a character limit in this section.

Parents want to send their children back to school not only for educational purposes but also for social interactions. I do understand that many children want that interaction with their friends and teachers. But I don't think it is going to be quite as rewarding as many think with social distancing and face coverings to be safe. No high fives, pats on the back, sharing earbuds to listen to a new song, or consoling an upset friend. Even facial expressions are lost. Tough times.

Hi! I'm a GedEd Middle School ELA teacher in Texas. This year I'm teaching 3 sections of coteach ELA and it's been a nightmare. I don't know if the coteach model is just a nighmare or if it's just the way my school/district has rolled it out that is making it a nightmare. Does anyone have experience with coteach? Any help is appreciated.

Hi!! What does your sped model look like?We were told to teach the gen ed curriculum w/ A&M to our pull-out kids & not focus on their goals cause we would teach them within the curriculum. Thoughts?

Interested in knowing thoughts of others about Sped Pre-K, low cognitive, having to be taught compound words, syllables, and spacing between words before they know colors, follow one steps, numbers, etc. No problem exposing them to it, but feel focus should be on prerequisite skills. Your thoughts?
