Extractions: The Guide to Special Education in Maine Index Introduction . Chapters: Once the Pupil Evaluation Team (PET) has identified the Individual Educational Program's (IEP's) goals and objectives, the next step is to determine where these will take place. A good place to start this process is to look at the regular educational environment provided at your local school. Remember that the regular educational environment goes beyond the classroom setting. This extends to nonacademic areas such as gym, lunch, recess and extracurricular activities. Least Restrictive Environment (LRE), Maine State Education Regulations (MSER) now referred to as Least Restrictive Educational Alternative (LREA). It states that services will be provided to the student in the regular educational environment with nondisabled peers to the maximum extent appropriate. "To the maximum extent appropriate, students with disabilities, including students in public or private institutions or other care facilities, shall be educated with students who are not disabled, and special classes, separate schooling, or other removal of students with disabilities from the regular educational environment shall occur only when the nature or severity of the disability of a student is such that education in regular classes with the use of supplementary aids and services cannot be achieved satisfactorily." (MSER, Chapter 101, Section 11.1, p. 58)

Site Map MADSEC is the professional association Return to Scholarships It was just another story in some waysa 33-year-old man was killed when his auto was struck by a drunk driver. But there's always much more to such a tragedythe story of the life that was taken. His was quite a life, according to those who knew and loved hima life of joy, hard work, dedication, humility and great influence. THE MAN LOU FONTANA REMEMBERED BY HIS FRIENDS: While at the Maine Department of Education, Lou was involved in program reviews (evaluations of local public school special education programs). His style was to look at the aspects that were positive and constructive, as opposed to seeking out the negative. Lou was not only a spokesman for all children but a champion of the needs of the most severely disabled. He was a part of all Department policy decisions that affected the severely disabled.
Extractions: You Are Here Home Meeting Every Student's Needs Students with Special Needs Science Resources ... About this CD A summer program brings students with special needs together with scientists and teachers to develop techniques for making Earth system science accessible to all. by Libby Cohen , The Spurwink Institute, Portland, Maine, and Kim Washburn , University of Southern Maine, Portland More About ACCESS Earth On a summer day on the southern Maine coast, 15 Earth system science teachers, 15 students, and five environmental scientists traveled down a path that meandered through the Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve. The lively group consisted of students with a wide range of disabilities, including quadriplegia, low vision, learning disabilities, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and emotional and behavioral disabilities. Several of the teachers and scientists also had disabilities. All participants had one common bond: their passionate interest in Earth system science, an approach to the study of the Earth that emphasizes interactions among the land, atmosphere, oceans, and biosphere. Integrating the scientific disciplines of atmospheric science, geology, oceanography, environmental science, and ecology, Earth system science is grounded in the physical, chemical, and biological processes that characterize Earth's systems.
