Greene and Greg Forster Comment on this story Send this story to a friend Get Home Delivery Now that Michigan lawmakers have averted the state's budget crisis, they might want to think about dealing with one of its major causes: special education. Michigan's system for educating disabled students gives the state the worst of both worlds: It eats up huge amounts of taxpayer money - we estimate the system's problems misdirect about $166 million per year into special education - while hindering the state from helping struggling kids to learn. Michigan's budget problem has merely been postponed, not solved. The state avoided big spending cuts, including cuts to schools, only by grabbing a quick one-time fix - it moved up the date for county tax collection by five months.

YOUR CHILD HOME Your Child Topics UMHS HOME Learning Disabilities What are learning disabilities (LD)? If your child is not doing as well in school as they have the potential to, they may have a learning disability . Having a learning disability means having a normal intelligence but a problem in one or more areas of learning. A learning disability is a neurobiological disorder; people with LD have brains that learn differently because of differences in brain structure and/or function. If a person learns differently due to visual, hearing or physical handicaps, mental retardation, emotional disturbance, or environmental, cultural or economic disadvantage, we do not call it a learning disability. Some people with LD also have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or ADH D LDs can affect many different areas: Spoken language—problems in listening and speaking Reading—difficulties decoding or recognizing words or understanding them Written language—problems with writing, spelling, organizing ideas Math—trouble doing arithmetic or understanding basic concepts Reasoning—problems organizing and putting together thoughts Memory—problems remembering facts and instructions Social behavior—difficulties with social judgment, tolerating frustration and making friends
