CONFERENCE COMMITTEE SET TO PASS
BIPARTISAN AGREEMENT
IMPROVING FEDERAL SPECIAL EDUCATION LAWS WASHINGTON—House and Senate negotiators today will put the finishing touches on a bipartisan agreement to improve federal special education laws, said Judd Gregg, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions. Gregg predicted final congressional passage of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act prior to adjournment. “The agreement we will pass today reflects two years of hard work and bipartisan cooperation by all involved,” Gregg said. “With significant input from parents, educators and disability groups, as well as the recommendations of the President’s Commission on Excellence in Special Education, our bill attempts to better unite parents, teachers and school administrators around the shared goal of a quality, results-based education for children with disabilities.” Gregg, who is stepping down as Chairman of the HELP Committee at the end of the 108th Congress, said, “I can think of no finer way to bring my tenure as Chairman of this committee to a close than by completing action on this legislation. In particular, I would like to thank Senator Kennedy, Congressman Boehner, Congressman Miller and all of our dedicated staff for their contributions and their cooperative spirit in working toward this day.”

New England Severe Weather Hazards Top
New England is also highly susceptible to the potential loss of life and damage from hurricanes. first recorded hurricane in New England was the Great Coastal Hurricane that struck in August of 1635. Since that time, more than 60 damaging hurricanes have impacted New England. The Hurricane of 1938 struck on September 21, 1938, with wind gusts up to 138 mph. Seven hundred people were killed and 2,000 injured. More than $400 million in damages (1938 Dollars) resulted from this and affected every New England state. More recent hurricanes affecting New England were Carol in 1954, Diane in 1955, Donna in 1960, Gloria in 1985 and Bob in 1991.
New England's history of severe weather includes a legacy of severe winter storms and blizzards. Probably the most severe winter storm ever to strike New England was the Blizzard of 1888. This storm occurred on March 11-14, 1888 and dumped 30 to 50 inches of snow in the region. In Boston, where the snow mixed with rain, the city was covered with 9 inches of heavy wet slush. In 1978 another great blizzard hit New England. The Blizzard of '78 dumped 24 to 38 inches of the white stuff immobilizing the infrastructure and blocking major interstate highways. Thousands of motorists abandoned their automobiles on the highways and in some areas upwards of 2 weeks were required to clear the snow. More recent blizzards and snowstorms occurred in March of 1993 and February of 1996. These events killed scores of people, caused millions of dollars in damage and left thousands of people without power for days.

Student Diversity and Learning Needs. ERIC Digest.
To successfully reach out to a diversity of learners requires substantial support. Although budget-minded critics will argue that such support is costly, they need to be reminded that an investment in prevention today will eliminate or lessen the expense of remediation tomorrow. Not surprisingly, educators who receive substantial help are more effective when carrying out worthwhile innovations that increase all students' potential for success. This notion of support is vitally important because students' "at-riskness" will not disappear and because the government and educational community continue to believe in the efficacy of raising academic standards. This Digest will discuss some sources of support intended as a complement to and a scaffold for teachers and administrators who experiment with different ways of meeting a diversity of learning needs.
CURRICULAR CONGRUENCE
At-risk learners benefit from instructional activities that are carefully planned and mutually supported by classroom teachers and learning center staff (Nelson, 1994). Unfortunately, many schools provide separate instruction in both settings. For example, in the English classroom, students may explore the theme of good and evil by reading and discussing William Golding's "Lord of the Flies," whereas in the learning center, at-risk students may complete workbook exercises and other fragmented activities unrelated to the instructional theme. Clearly, at-risk learners are more likely to be successful when classroom and learning center teachers provide them with congruent goals, resources, strategies, and skills.

37. INCLUSION, EDUCATION & HUMAN RIGHTS
Those with special educational needs must have access to mainstream shcools,which should new hampshire Institute of Disability Inclusion is a process.
http://www.adders.org/info106.htm
adders.org - Information
The following guideline/information has been written by Disability Equality in Education

Increasingly, Inclusion and Inclusive Education are becoming buzzwords to which everyone subscribes. However, behind the language lies a struggle for human rights, which is by no means won nor complete.
Powerful policy statements have been adopted by the international community following pressure from human rights activists and the Disabled People's Movement.
The Salamanca Statement
, adopted by UNESCO in July 1994, was adopted by governments and 20 non-government organisations, Every child has a fundamental right to education and must be given the opportunity to achieve and maintain acceptable levels of learning.
Every child has unique characteristics, interest, abilities and learning needs.
Education systems should be designed and educational programmes implemented to take into account the wide diversity of these characteristics and needs.
Those with special educational needs must have access to mainstream shcools, which should accommodate them with a child-centred pedagogy capable of meeting those needs.
Mainstream schools with this inclusive orientatin are the most effective means of combating discriminatory attitudes, creating welcoming communities, building an inclusive society and achieving education for all. Moreover, they provide an effective education for the majority of children (without special needs) and improving the effeciency and ultimately the cost effectiveness of the entire education system.

An Affirmation of Community; A Revolution of Vision And Goals
Creating a Community to Support All People Including Those With Disabilities
Thomas Nerney, Richard F. Crowley,with Bruce Kappel
A consistent theme throughout these strategies is that choice, decision-making and financial resources are in the hands of people with disabilities. One result of this approach is that there will be fewer intermediaries standing as barriers between people with disabilities and other members of their community. Today, a massive service system and bureaucracy stands as a barrier. Our future will be built together professionals, ordinary citizens, friends, colleagues, co-workers and family members. Professionals will assist people to turn their plans into reality. Community members will continue to work together to build a community and nation in which individuals live quality lives and contribute to the common good.
Chapter 7 A NEW WAY OF LOOKING AT SUPPORTS
"The process asks much of us. The initial focus is on us, not on changing the other person. However, as we begin to change and draw more closely to the marginalized people, our task is to bring others along to form circles of friends and change reality."

Section 504
Policies and Procedures What is Section 504? Section 504 (C.F.R. 104) of the Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973 is federal civil rights law. It states that no qualified individual with a disability, shall on the basis of that disability, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or otherwise be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity which receives or benefits from federal financial assistance (e.g., public schools). A person qualified as disabled under Section 504 is an individual who has a physical or mental impairment, and/or is regarded as having such impairment, which thereby substantially limits one or more major life activities. Major life activities include caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, walking, talking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, working, and learning. Section 504 protection also covers all students found eligible for specialized instruction under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
