Special Education<br />
Because all children deserve a high quality education, there are no separate<br />
or different standards for children with special needs. However, students<br />
with disabilities should be provided a range of supports.<br />
Children with special needs should receive remediation, ac<strong>com</strong>modations,<br />
modifications, assistive technology, and other supports for classroom<br />
learning and any tests, all of which can be specified in an IEP<br />
(Individualized Educational Plan) or 504 Plan.<br />
Some questions to ask include:<br />
• What learning goal does each standard address?<br />
• What does my child need to have in place to achieve<br />
the standards being taught?<br />
• What strategies, teaching, technology, or other services will be<br />
provided to make sure my child has an equal opportunity to reach<br />
the same high level of learning?<br />
• How will any changes related to the <strong>Standards</strong> affect my<br />
child’s IEP?<br />
• Are there other tests, options, or services available adapted<br />
to meet my child’s needs?<br />
• Who should I go to for help?<br />
Knowing what your child is supposed to be learning in each grade can<br />
make it easier for you to ask questions about meeting academic goals and<br />
what kind of extra help your child might need.<br />
The plan may have both learning and nonacademic goals, such as<br />
behavioral goals or goals related to how your child expresses his/her<br />
feelings. Only the learning goals need to be based on the grade-level<br />
standards.<br />
