11. Reading Recovery rhode island s public schools are diagnosing children as learning Tom DiPaola (Office of special needs) said, special education probably won t hurt http://www.ri.net/sorico/reading_recovery.htm

Reading Recovery in Southern Rhode Island After a brief lapse in service, the Southern Rhode Island Collaborative has once again put the Reading Recovery intervention into the offerings to schools and school districts. Rhode Island has developed a consortium of sites to serve the State in the various regions. Because of the definite need in the area of reading and writing and the devotion of many advocates, the intervention has once again been reinstated in this area with hiring of a Teacher Leader in the Southern Rhode Island region. Patricia Starnes comes to us after working several years in Reading Recovery. She was trained by Billie Askew at Texas Woman's University and continued to work as a Teacher Leader in South Texas, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. While in Massachusetts, she worked directly under Irene Fountas at Lesley University and received further training as a trainer of Literacy Coordinators for the Literacy Collaborative (formerly ELLI). Starnes' bilingual proficiency led her to be involved in Descubreindo La Lectura, a Spanish reconstruction of Reading Recovery and the development of materials for use in Literacy Collaborative classrooms where children are learning to read in Spanish. Reading Recovery is a valuable service that schools provide for first grade children who are struggling in reading and writing. The intervention targets children before they have fallen into a cycle of failure and the majority of them become successful readers and writers. Actually, the program has two positive outcomes. The children who are unable to meet the average range of performance within 20 weeks of service are then clearly identified as needing Special Education services. This allows for better identification of the Special Education population and the children's programs can be more readily identified.

ONLINE CURRENT ISSUE CONTACT US ADVERTISING STAFF ... ARCHIVES More Choices For Disabled Kids By Lewis M. Andrews (Go to Print Friendly Version) f the opponents of school choice could have their way, the national debate over the use of public money to subsidize private schooling would turn on the subject of special education. With research demonstrating the overall success of school voucher programs in Milwaukee and Cleveland, and with the constitutional issue of public funding of religiously affiliated schools headed for resolution in a seemingly God-tolerant Supreme Court, defenders of the educational status quo have been reduced to fanning fears that government support of greater parental choice would transform public schools into dumping grounds for difficult-to-educate students. Rethinking Schools naacp Seventeenth Annual Report to Congress on the Implementation of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act , over The argument that school choice must inevitably create special education ghettos would appear to have been strengthened by the recent adoption of market-based education reforms in New Zealand. In the late employees with a new Ministry of Education staffed by only people and putting each local school under the control of a community board of trustees. At the same time, the government abolished school zoning, allowing children to transfer freely between schools, even to private schools, at state expense.

The Journal of Blacks in Higher Education Journal of Multicultural Positing that Black student retention rates in higher education in the United States has only minimally improved, this study examines the adjustment of black students from lower socio-economic communities to college life. This study provides data for 15 minority students at two four-year commuter colleges. Discussed are limited community affiliation, limited associations with college peers, and the role in counselors in retaining such students. A reference list and excerpts from student interviews are also included. The Journal of Blacks in Higher Education Cultural Diversity and Ethnic Minority Psychology Using the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, this study examines the characteristics of perfectionism and their affect on academic achievement among various ethnic groups.

Technology R.I. plans to correct flaws in special ed The state, which leads the nation in the percentage of special-needs students, will set new standards for the way children are diagnosed and improve data collection, among other actions. BY MARION DAVIS Journal Staff Writer SMITHFIELD Prompted by new federal rules, the state has launched a five-year plan to expand access to special-education services, especially at young ages, and stop the misdiagnosis of healthy children as "disabled." In 2000, Rhode Island ranked first in the nation in the proportion of students in special education nearly 1 in 5 more than 3 percent higher than the national average, and more than twice the state's rate 20 years ago. In fiscal 2000, Rhode Island spent more than $243 million on special education, a 152-percent increase from 1990, or twice the growth rate of education expenditures overall. Every year, schools superintendents complain to local and state officials that they can't keep up with the skyrocketing costs.
