Extractions: Timothy Bush teaches special education at Seaford Senior High School in Delaware. Currently a member of the Delaware State Education Association executive board, he's also a lead teacher for his district's New Teacher Mentoring Program. S pecial educators are trained to look at the whole child and make decisions based on individual needs. I feel that I must qualify my "yes" answer by rephrasing the question to read, "Should many special need students be exempt from taking graduation tests?" I don't believe students should be routinely exempted, but I do believe that only the experts who participate on a student's Child Study Team should make that decision. As long as bureaucrats and politicians can mandate that all students take a single test to graduate, a team's ability to exempt a student from such testing is compromised. If special needs students are lumped together with non-disabled peers and required to take high-stakes tests without procedural safeguards, I have grave concerns about fairness.

Special Reports SERVICES Video E-mail Newsletters CNNtoGO SEARCH Web CNN.com Story Tools RELATED Key provisions in the special education bill HR 1350 WASHINGTON (AP) A Republican-led push to let parents send disabled children to private school with government money failed Wednesday as the House passed legislation renewing a 28-year-old law governing special education. Democrats said the school choice proposals amounted to a dangerous expansion of the voucher program. The proposals were a major point of contention in the debate over reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. The bill passed by a 251-171 vote. One plan would have enticed states to create private school options so parents could use public money for tuition and transportation. A second proposal was intended to give certificates of public dollars about $1,400 to disabled children already enrolled in private schools so they could get extra services. Supporters said that amounts to the per-student federal dollars that school districts receive for special education. Almost every Democrat and about one-fifth of Republicans joined to reject the ideas.

Extractions: Planning for individuals with disabilities will be one of the most demanding and rapidly growing areas of practice over the next 20 years, as parents of individuals with disabilities die and more members of the population become disabled. This article reviews types of special needs trusts, which can be a powerful planning tool. The authors also discuss trustee responsibilities, provide a due diligence approach to selecting a trustee for a special needs trust and describe a variety of design options for the ongoing management of the trust. Individuals with disabilities have special needs and may be eligible for a wide variety of public programs. Effective planning includes coordinating those public program benefits with private family or other resources. Critical to this coordination is the special needs trust, a unique planning tool that can substantially enhance the lifestyle of individuals who experience a disability.

Extractions: REFERENCES INTRODUCTION The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) document, Principles for Maternal and Child Health Care , states "children and adolescents with special health care needs refers to children from birth and adolescents, through age 21, who have or are at risk for a broad range of physical/emotional disabilities and chronic illnesses." Students with chronic health conditions or disabilities have unique needs, including physical, developmental, medical, emotional, social, educational and cultural needs. Equally important, each child and family has strengths and resources that must be recognized and integrated into service planning.

Extractions: @import "/data/css/rca.css"; Print this page Email this page by Eugene Heideman As she moved from church to church, Ruth learned about Jesus while participating in congregational life in important ways. Jesus taught his disciples that he wanted them to welcome and to love all those who were baptized into the life of the church, from the youngest child to the most senior citizen, from those with intellectual gifts to the academically challenged, from the greatest athlete to the most physically disabled. He wanted his disciples to help each person locate and use every talent in the ministry of the church. So great is the range of capacities of individuals and the diversity of gifts that it can take a measure of creativity and imagination to appreciate the contribution each person can make in enabling the congregation to grow in spirit, in love, and in ministry. Ministering to people who are developmentally disabled can be quite different from ministry with those who are physically disabled. A person who is confined to a wheelchair may be quite mentally astute. A person with a brain injury may have complete and full use of his or her limbs. It is important to remember that not all people with disabilities require the same accommodations, or the same ministries, and it may not be possible for a single church to accommodate everyone's needs. Whether your church is dedicated to accessibility or educational classes, it is important to remember that focusing on one thing that fosters ministry with people with disabilities is a step in the right direction.
