I really enjoyed the posts regarding LD eligibility and the value of the discrepancy formula. I just finished a fascinating document that you can download. It’s called “Rethinking Special Education for a New Century.” Although it’s lengthy, I was truly inspired by some of the ideas that some of the authors developed. As a leader of the group looking to reform special ed in my district, it was especially interesting. Give it a look - I’d love to hear everyone’s feedback!
