  1. Special Education Update Report Aaron King

  2. Scope & Magnitude of HCS Special Education HCS ADM for FY12 = 22,811 HCS students attending a Title I school, FY12 = 6,374 HCS students with an IEP, FY12 = 2,445 HCS students with an IEP attending a Title I School, FY12= 722

  3. Special Education Services by Location

  4. Special Education Personnel

  5. Merts Special Education Personnel • Special education personnel were moved from the Annie Merts building to a hub for the schools that they serve • This does a few things: • Eliminates the driving time from the Merts Center, and therefore reduces the mileage expenses incurred by the individual and the district • Establishes more time for interaction with students and educators • Provides more personnel in the schools to help manage and mitigate problems

  6. Educational Expenditures

  7. Annual Expenditure Per HCS Student Highest Cost IEP Expenditure Per Student Lowest Cost IEP Students Arrayed From Lowest to Highest Expenditure

  8. Interpreting the Data • The data tells us that there is a large variance between the educational costs of students. • That means the district must: • Ensure that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) are followed with the intent set forth • Free and Appropriate Public Education • Educational needs are met in the Least Restrictive Environment • Ensure that services are allocated and provided based on legitimate needs as determined by the IEP team • Establish the proper protocols to ensure that the IEP process is equitable across the district
