    2. NCLB, Special Ed, and the idea of “Response to Intervention” NCLB requires that ALL students have access to research-based, effective instruction Right now, kids qualify for special education, under Specific Learning Disability when there is a severe discrepancy between their abilities and their achievement. But for some younger kids who struggle, this means they can’t get support if they need it- they haven’t been alive long enough, or failed long enough to show a discrepancy! New definition- kids who don’t respond to increasingly strategic intervention can be considered eligible for special education (read: kids shouldn’t be determined to have a disability if they haven’t been received effective instruction)
