15. Statement Of Senator Michael B. Enzi, Floor Consideration Of S. 1248 wyoming currently uses a model that identifies students as disabled once they in wyoming schools because we ve done so well at meeting their needs. http://enzi.senate.gov/idea2.htm

Statement of Senator Michael B. Enzi Floor consideration of S. 1248 I am pleased that the Senate has begun consideration of S. 1248, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2003. There are few issues as important as the education of our nation's youth. Making sure all of our children receive a good education has been a long-standing goal of this body. I am pleased that the Committee was able to reach unanimous support of the underlying bill and I hope this body will act quickly to agree to this important legislation and send it to conference. Since Congress first began providing state grant funding for the education of disabled students in 1966, the process for ensuring that every disabled student receives a free appropriate public education has been refined and improved from one reauthorization to the next. I believe this legislation is another important step in that process. While there are many improvements to the law in this legislation, I want to highlight four changes that I feel are most important to my home state of Wyoming. First, there is an increased emphasis on early identification and intervention. Wyoming currently uses a model that identifies students as "disabled" once they fall more than two grade levels behind. Many states use the same method, or a method called the "IQ discrepancy" test. Both of these models tend to limit the positive effect that timely services can have on a student's growth. Unfortunately, states feel compelled to use these models because of requirements that exist in federal law.

16. Testimony -- Louise Green the special needs of a disabled child within the school system itself. wyoming is a sparcely populated state but has 51000 disabled citizens. http://wata.org/dyk/meeting/testimony/green.htm

Written Testimony for Education Louise Green Three years ago I became the advocate for Shawna, a young woman with severe disabilities. Shawna is 19 and has fetal drug and alcohol syndrome. She is developmentally delayed . Has a severe speech problem, visually impaired, and has limited mobility. Shawna has reached her learning capacity and is now basically learning life skills. She is in the 11th grade and doing quite well , but could be doing better with the use of technology. She has never been evaluated for technical assistance with the school district. Shawna would benefit a great deal from a speech enhancement device to improve her communication skills. I have also done advocacy for another young woman and followed her from high school to her work place. Dianne is now in her mid 20's. Dianne had cerebral palsy at birth and has severe disability. She is motion impaired, partially deaf and has a severe speech impediment. Dianne has very high IQ and a lot of people skills, qualities that make her employable. In her transition from high school she was not evaluated for technology that could improve her skills either. She was transitioned directly into a sheltered workshop for the developmentally disabled and she had been there for 4 years. Dianne has above average skills on the computer, but she has learned this on her own . Unlike Shawna , Dianne could have been a candidate for college. With the use of technology for hearing and speech she could be employed in a lot of fields instead of wasting away in a workshop making wooden boxes for $1.50 per hour.

Metro Santa Cruz MetroActive Central Archives Disabled by Law Robert Scheer Speak No Evil: Ryan Jones couldn't find a place in the Santa Cruz school system, despite a law guaranteeing his right to a public education. More than 20 years ago, Congress passed sweeping legislation to protect the civil rights of disabled children by guaranteeing them an education. California still hasn't gotten around to enforcing it. By Kelly Luker I T IS THE MIDDLE OF A SCHOOL DAY, but 9-year-old Ryan Jones is at home, showing his visitor a collection of Star Wars memorabilia. Unable to speak because of a stroke suffered at birth, the bright-eyed youngster points excitedly to miniatures of Darth Vader and R2D2 as his mother Karen smiles and looks on. The tender scene belies the controversy around this mother and her disabled son. Ryan is not playing hookyKaren Jones pulled her child out of school, disgusted with school officials' failure to give him what he needs to get an education. After two years, numerous meetings involving several attorneys and, finally, a formal civil rights complaint, it doesn't look like Ryan Jones will be back in school anytime soon. The story behind Ryan's and Karen's fight can be traced back more than a decade before Ryan was born. A federal law known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) was passed in 1975, requiring that children with special needs be taught alongside other school children "whenever possible" in the "least restrictive environment." It is these two phrases that have become a sticking point between Santa Cruz County educators and parents of disabled kids. These parents, including Karen Jones, have joined together to file a complaint with the Civil Rights Office at the U.S. Department of Education.
